If I were to buy a GS, it would be the 96 (blue/white stripe)

I saw one up close and it's a sweet car but I can't understand why they didn't bring back the admiral blue paint with white stripe down the middle, black wheels and the red hash marks. I think C4's are fugly but I always digged the grand sport color scheme.

id rather take my C5 and slap some wide fenders and replica wheels on it then spend 50+ on a C6 just for the "GS" name.

I absolutely love the new GS. I think it looks super aggressive, and the LS3 is such a badass motor that takes so well to mods that I'm not dissapointed that they stuck that motor in it. The price is steep, but at that price level for a "fun" car you shouldn't be buying it if the extra cost will make or break you.

In 1996, all 6-speed vettes got the LT4, so it wasn't GS specific.

A bit pricey IMO but with the ZO6 only coming in a manual and hard top....eh...that's not for everyone.

This car looks mean, would have the roof options people want, the trans people want(not saying they'd want an A6>M6 but at least the option is there). I think it's a great package to cover everyone's wants and desires...it's just a lot of money.

Not much different looking then a ZO6, overpriced (72k+ sticker at local dealer), side gills are iffy. To each his own but I would rather pick up a used C6Z with <8k miles for ~40k.

ya thomas is kinda a PITA. they dont like us a whole lot for some reason but w.e. oates is basically done. they tried selling us their callaways and camaros they have left. my neighbor bought the black z06 600+hp callaway. i dunno... for $120K... I spend less then half and my C6Z is faster..no warranty but still I could blow my motor up 5x and still be better off lol.

I love the GS look. I'm pretty sure it'll be my C5 replacement in a couple years. Add the Procharger set up = good to go.

Nice but pricey for basically a base vette
