Who's going to buy a 2013?
I’ve replaced all my vehicles in ’11 & ’12, so I won’t need a ’13 model.
Who wants to own a “13”?
Maybe GM should just skip 13 like they do in the hotel business.

I doubt I'll be buying a 2013. Of course, that might depend on what the C7 turns out to be.
I respect your opinion but I disagree. My 2005 has been a great car in all respects. Had I shared your view I would have missed an entire year of enjoyment. I'm not one to buy a new model simply to have the latest-greatest but if the time is right to buy a new car I wouldn't be deterred by a new model year. In reading the forum it's pretty obvious problems aren't limited to new model year cars. With respect to the 2005, I did a poll some years ago. The vast majority of 2005 owners (90%+) felt their 2005 was reliable and they were quite satisfied with the car. I know many share your 'never buy a first year model' viewpoint but I don't buy into it.

I think this is the answer. If the C7 changes too much into a car us older Corvette lovers don't recognize, there will be a rush to get a 2013, if in fact that is the last year for the C6.
