The newer the better, look for body damage or overspray where damage may have been repaired, check under the front bumper there are two bars the run front to back and get damaged very easily, rocking seats are also an issue.
I have started driving my WS6 to keep the miles on my vette down and I will say that I have missed it. Its bone stock now but its alot of fun to drive again, and I get a **** ton more compliments on my WS6 than I do on my Vette

Deffinitely get one man, it's a totally different experience. I know people say that all the time and I never really thought it could be THAT different..but it is.
Whole new ball game..it's hard to describe. It's like everytime I drive mine it feels like the first time.

When I had my Vette, everyone thought I was an *******. Nobody really wants to tell you nice car, or even talk to you about it. With all My FBody's and mustangs the avg man is more willing to talk to you about your car. Plus I'm only 30 years old.

A lot of people think I'm an *******.... I get compliments on my Corvettes every day. Even when theyve been sitting for 16 months with no engine. (
) But then again, an out of the box C5 isn't very impressive these days....
To be on topic.. I still have my Camaro, but the Corvette is better in just about every way. Go to corvetteforum and research. Then go buy.

i daily drive a c6 auto everyday. its definately gets less attention from cops and the stock sound system is better, but thats about the end of my preferences for the vette. im a big guy and the vette just feels to small for me. i prefer driving my f body for a million more reasons too. pretty much the same reasons all others favor their f bodies. Also i dont know if any other vette owners have this issue, but the rear axles make a loud clicking noise when going from drive to reverse or vise versa. Not a big issue but a little annoying
