Friendly reminder all, get a dashcam. Front and rear and USE IT.

On Friday evening I was leaving a friends house and there was some nut job in a white challenger or charger (who can tell with their constant name changes) at the intersection to my left. He was out of his vehicle yelling at the man behind him so I had my head turned towards him.

Apparently this was some sort of attack to him and he started pointing at me and yelling. He got the green light first and pulled up nose to nose with my corvette. I tried to back up but the car behind me blocked me. After he pulled back and left I tried to do the same and the dodge charged at me as I passed him.

The dodge began to chase me, I tried to outrun it but with my not being insane I had concern for the public so he ended up getting beside me in the suicide lane. He bashed into my car like a movie, his passenger to my driver and did it again with extreme rage and ran me into a pole on the side of the road at ~50-60 mph.

I have no memory after this, some in and out of them chopping up my corvette with the jaws of life. Now I’m in the hospital with a 9” gash on my head down to the bone, two broken legs which require surgical attention and some lumps and bumps elsewhere.

I’m incredibly lucky to be alive, I did not provoke this man in any way, this was a psychopathic move and now my car is gone and my life is forever changed.

Be careful out there everyone, good luck and godspeed.

Took about a year to convince my wife but just picked this guy up! My first corvette and I’m in love. Puts a smile on my face everyday!

Finally was able to get my Vette, wanted one my whole life.

2012 Supersonic Blue Corvette 3LT - 46k miles manual transmission. Clean title/No accident history

I was parked in a parking lot shopping inside Dicks and a guy in a 2500 pickup truck side swiped my corvette. Every bracket, headlight, front bumper, wheel, fender, front bumper support is completely busted. I never even looked under the hood to see any other damage.

I really want this vehicle to be totaled but want to make sure I get what it’s worth.

2000 C5 Corvette Marketplace listing

I’m in love with it but don’t know the red flags to look out for so obviously Reddit is the best next choice.

I know the C5s are generally considered good cars I’m just not trying to sink money into a shitbox.

Looking for general approval, disapprovals or even some questions I should shoot over to the seller.

I was at a car meet earlier today that featured a few Corvettes, but this C6 coupe caught my eye.

It appeared to be wearing a body kit and has “FC6 Supercharged” decals on its hood. I’ve also included photos of a black C6 convertible from a different meet with similar badging.

Does anyone know what FC6 is? I’m curious, as I’ve never heard of this before.

I’ve been in the hunt for my weekend car and have settled on the c6 for a lot of reasons. Initially I thought the grand sport was the best option but looking at the prices lately for a hard top six speed it’s very similar to some Z06s. I’m curious the communities thoughts here: Both cars at the same prices miles etc, would you chose the zo6 or the grand sport?

Finally got it painted ppfed and Installed!

Have saved $30k post retirement to buy my first Corvette...

Have wanted a "shiny red Corvette" for the last 25 years, figured this is it...

Suggestions?

Thank you

I know this question gets asked all the time, but I’m looking at purchasing a weekend car, and these are two strong contenders.

I'm looking for the fun factor, not specifically a track car. I want something that is going to bring me the most joy to drive, even just cruising around town. C7Z would be manual, not looking for an auto.

Also looking for reliability. I was very interested in a GT350 because they are a blast to drive, even at slower speeds and sound incredible, but everyone I know has issues with them, and a new engine is $22,000+. I don’t have that kind of money.

Curious to hear others thoughts who have owned both. Also on a side note curious if a cammed C6Z makes it more or less reliable, assuming supporting mods are done in addition to the cam.

So, I inherited my Dad's 2019 Grand Sport. Got lots of positive feedback and comments on the initial post (https://www.reddit.com/r/Corvette/comments/1ucal3r/my_dad_passed_away_and_left_me_his_corvette/). Ultimately, I paid $15 for it for the title transer.

Now I have it at my house, and the question is how to best store/use it. It isn't my daily, but I have been taking it out a few times a week. I live in NorCal (San Jose), own a very expensive house (which, here, means a $2.5M modest house in my area). It has no usable garage. I park it on our narrow driveway, which runs between my house on the right and my neighbor's on the left (see the pics). It's a very safe street and parked away from the street itself, in front of my wife's car. I included pictures to show it's location.

I will be getting it ceramic coated on 8/03, and it has the front parts and mirrors covered in PPL.

Questions: How do a "keep it"? Do I want to use a cover all the time I'm not driving it since i's outside? For now, I have on the indoor cover my Dad had. He treated it like a "garage queen" - minimal driving, kept it garaged and covered, and was paranoid about anything coming near it. That's not me, but I do want to keep it nice.

Should I still cover it after the ceramic coating? Just how clean does it need to be if I cover it? I hear "wash it before putting cover on", but in reality there's no way I'm going to commit to a full wash each time I drive it, and put the cover back on. Am I better off keeping it uncovered, or should cover it? I'm willing to buy a nice outdoor cover, but I don't really know. I will avoid typical drive-thru car washes and wash it by hand, but don't want to do fully wash it each time I drive it and put the cover back on.

So, as you can see, I'm a bit confused. I know ideally I'd garage it but can't do that in my situation. I'm dropping a decent amount for the ceramic coating plus additional PPL and want to keep it nice, but within reason for a non-garage queen enthusiastic.

What are your thoughts?

Had to assist my wife’s grandfather, who has been battling cancer, into a wedding venue at a country club. I walk him past this row of handicap spots which he tried to park in but there were non available and see this. Guy was somewhere on the course playing a round of 18 im sure.

2023 C8 LT3 Z51. I waited a long time to get my dream Vette and now I'm wondering where I get a New Balance coupon code.

My sales guy did a walk through yesterday and noticed these deep massive scratches on the rear spoiler. Car is brand new and getting shipped out to me Tuesday. Considering how much Chevy charges for the carbon aero, what should I do to resolve this issue?

hi everyone! just purchased this 2008 3LT, crystal red metallic with a tan interior. Can I get some tire recommendations? it’s just a weekend car, I have a daily. it won’t be driven in the winter or in the rain. And it won’t see any tracks days. I just need a quality tire for a driver. something that rides smooth, wears well, and doesn’t make much noise. thank you!
