Default Rank the generations!

In order of favorite to least favorite generations (dare I even say least favorite when talking about a Corvette), rank the generations. My rankings are below. I really love the C3's, especially 68 to 74. I bought my C6 because I thought it had some of the C3 lines in its styling. I've never been a fan of the C4, maybe it will grow on me with time.

Well the only Vettes I have owned is a C5 and a C6. Between the two, it would be the C6 than the C5. I like the looks of the all of them though.

I'm surprised that Corvettes survived after they built the C-4's - Total junk quality in my mind. Favorite is C-1 (I have one), then C-5 (have one, then C-6 (just got one), then C-2, then C-3

By far, I think the C2's have always had the best looks and the best sounding exhaust.

Thats a tough one to answer.. Each generation were advanced for the time frame they were built. Thru the years and generations they just got better and better.. Talking from owning a C-2 C-3 And now a C-6 my mid-year (65) was the best for all out FUN to drive and raw horsepower.. The 69 handled better and is still fun to drive but the C-6 has it all over them both but its just not the same for the fun factor...

C6 Naturally, You are in the C6 section
C2 Everybody loves the Mid Year style

C3
C5 I just hated the Big Butt look,Totalally
They are all great automobiles,but C3's had the worst build quality and least horsepower outside of the early C1's

I always thought the C4s looked too much like firebirds or camaros.
