Very nice car. I plan on ordering my next Corvette with your same color combo. I ordered my C6 through New Rockford Chev too.

Thanks for all the nice comments! I'm definitely enjoying the more refined aspects of the C6, though I have to admit, at first I missed the 'visceralness' (is that a word?) of the C5 Z just a little, but that feeling has faded quickly. The C6 may feel a little less connected to the road, so to speak, but the comfort, quietness, and accoutrements outweigh that easily for me. I'm glad I made the move to the C6 !

BTW, I agree that I need to change my user name now , but I couldn't figure out how to do it when I went into profile mode. Anyone know how to change it?

I think you have to P.M. a moderator to do that change. Welcome to the C6 side of the board, You went a little conservative didn't you??? Yellow is a more noticable color!I like the Silver/Red color combo though,as you can see by my username I went the other way!

Very Nice!! I don't think you'll regret the move. I just went from a C5 to a C6 and think it was a great move.

They say the C5 Z06 is neck & neck with the C6 Z51.

In about a month you can tell us your experience.
