Not only will you get better performance and better reliability out of a C5 as opposed to the BMW... but you will probably get better gas mileage also! LOL

What he said.

Our opinion is just that. OUR OPINION. At the end of the day you have to be happy with your purchase, not us. Drive them all. Buy what you like best.

150k mi here....The LS1 has been reliable, but as far as Refinement and squeaks, its a notch below par.

I've had a few of the electrical issues that are common on most Vettes, Im hoping the C6s are built a little better.
