Why do some wide body owners look down on the narrow body?

narrow vs wide
We just sold our 08 Velocity Yellow vert base car. We loved this car. Someone just wanted it so it went to a proud new owner.
We found a 13 Grand Sport and like it very much. I have to say having both that each has certain advantages over the other.
I for one would never look down on a base car as they call it even though its any thing but base.

Face it, most of the public couldn't tell a C6 from a Z06 from a ZR1 if you did park them side-by-side. Hopefully no 'widebody' C6 owners look down on a narrow body C6. If they do that's their problem. Be self-assured....both the C6 and wider body versions of the C6 are beautiful cars!

My wife, whos idea it was to buy the car, prefers the narrow body, and I have to agree, as it is wide enough for us.
Hope this clears things up.

Due to aerodynamics, isn’t the narrow body slightly quicker?

The wide body was an after thought!

I wear a monocle and look down on everybody.

Less mass to rotate around the wheel hubs with narrower, lighter tires and wheels on the narrow bodies. Are the brake rotors smaller also? That'll be a factor as well.

[Personal preference].
I never cared for any Corvette other than the the C2, until the C6 was released. And I never wanted to own one until the wide-body Z06/GS models came out. I think the Base narrow body cars look plain looking, to me. I bought a GS. I definitely don't like the C7 Stingray either. The wide body C7 looks better, but would never buy one because I think the C6 has the real Corvette look.
