Style, performance etc. C5 without a doubt.
not to take anything away from a great car, but I think the styling leaves a little to be desired. I am so sick of reading about the interior quality, though. There's nothing wrong with it. I think the auto writers are nuts. I can't believe they actually bullied Chevrolet into this new interior.

Yes but theres a reason for that to production numbers due to it's populatity.

Just having fun if I could go out and buy a ZR1 or a ZO6 I would park them right next to my C3.

I like "Corvettes", as in all Corvettes, not just a series of them. The older I get the more this "us vs. them" jive just seems chilidish.

A couple points.

My personal opinion is the C5. Personally I was not a corvette guy at all until I saw/rode in/drove the C5. I then fell in love.

How can people actually vote for the C6 when it hasn't even been released yet to sell? We don't know if it is going to be a bomb or da bom?

This post and vote is premature IMHO. I vote C5 b/c I like it better than the C1 - C4 and can't compare it to the C6 yet. Paper specs and pictures don't make a car.

Peace.

C6 will IMO be the best yet. But you certainly can't (or shouldn't) knock the previous gens. Each was stunning in their own time. That's why we're here. The legacy of this automobile and it's design has sparked some heated debates on this forum. Is there anyone here who wouldn't want one from each generation? And a garage big enough to hold them of course.

BTW, my vote is for the C2 for cool style.

I don't think the C6 is ready for this decision since nobody has even seen it live yet.

Personally I was not a corvette guy at all until I saw/rode in/drove the C5. I then fell in love.
I can't vote for the C3 or C4 because, except for the early C3's and late C4's those generations were what gave Corvette the "redneck, gold chain wearing, hairy chested Guido, **** star looking, cheap American sports car wannabe" rep in the auto world. Most C3's and C4's are just downright cheesy cars. The C5 finally (well, it was already starting with the later C4's like the CE and GS) gave Corvette that "I'm classy AND I'm gonna kick azz and take some names" demeanor. The C2 had it, the C3 lost it and the C5 regained the crown. The C6 will continue.

I think the C6 is damn near as close to a perfect car in terms of style, refinement, performance and value as there will ever be. I whined about some little things early on, but overall I like it and am sure it'll knock our socks off.

C5 hands above. Who's the buttface that added a 2nd C5 option?
