Back to Porsche....

I spent the last year with an 06 C6 Corvette, sold my 05 Carrera, and thought I'd try America's sports car. The Vette is wicked straight line fast, but scary upredictable at speed on curves and turns. GM has come a long way in fit and finish and electronics in my opinion, and the car has lots of bang for the buck, but it is NOT comparable to the Porsche.IMO. Having owned both I can tell you....you almost wear the Porsche, with the Corvette you get in and hang on.
I flipped the Vette for an 07 Carrera S, now I'am back in my comfort zone.
It's great to be home. ( Carmona Red & Sand Beige) I'll post pics as soon as I can talk Albert or Arling into taking them.

PS Joe, what do you mean "old man colors"?

Roy

07 Carrera S
Carmona Red & Sand Beige
Leather heated seats
Colored crests
Sport Chrono Package
Nav.
Bose high end sound W/ 6 changer CD
Sport shifter
Painted center console
5mm wheel spacers
polished SS tips
Metal door sills

END.
