Specifically Z06 and Grand Sport owners.
Any info about the car is much appreciated!

Why you chose Z or GS?
Maintenance?
Would you recommend to a guy in mid 20s?

TC: 210k
Driving YOE: ~8
Speeding Tickets: 2

Would love to hear what fellow tech lads or ladies have to say :)

    Love the C6 drove a 2013 Grand Sport (the 335 rear tires) steering is very heavy and you feel every pothole. Wheel tugs at the slightest road imperfection. It is a 2-hand driver 100% of the time.

    Get one out on the road and test, it’s either exactly what you’re looking for or everything you hate.

      Because there will be insurance and other costs too

      @ILoveVette but but... imagine... they finally did it! real mid engine, not in concept but real production car.

      Just sell some of your RSU, it will be fine haha.

      Also, red color C8 is 🔥

  • I would wait till it cools off a bit, that is a hot car right now just like the last redesign. You wait a bit you can pick up a used one on the cheap. They did a great job with the new body style.

    You will probably get better feedback on a vette forum. I assume you know how much insurance is for these at your age and the cost of brakes and tires? Those are what prevented me from getting a fun DD when I was 21. I do prefer the Z06 though as a track rat and DD.
