I purchased a 911 Carrera new in 2005. I owned it for 6+ years and no problems whatsoever. The oil changes were no more than my C7 (since it has a dry-sump system it takes 10 qts. of Mobil 1) and the...

The Lambo is s fine car, but aside from the initial price difference, the maintenance costs versus the C8 have to be crazy. Personally, I like driving a beautiful car, but the Lambo screams "LOOK AT...

Sorry guys and gals - not going C8

I'm not bashing the C8, in fact I think it is amazing. That said, I'm keeping my M7 C7. Gotta love old school. Maybe get a C8 down the line, but will never part with my beloved C7

Let's be honest - the C8 will be much more expensive than $60k

I built a new C8 on the Chevrolet website, and it came in right at $100k. Yes, it was the 3LT and had pretty much all the options, but my friends who already have deposits down are finding the same...

That's why I'll always keep my M7 Stingray, but will be ok with the paddle shift when I get the C8. Waiting for the convertible to see what it looks like.

Remember, this model is only the start. I agree that $60k for a 1LT is a bargain, and optioned the way the show cars looked will be closer to $90k. This with the LT2 engine which, power and torque...
