One "beautiful Machine" A "work Of Art" — I purchased this 2008 "VETTE" new in January 2010 for $49000.00. It's a LS3-Z51-CONVERTIBLE- with all the "BELL'S & WHISTLE'S. IT'S FAST-TOP SPEED IS 190+MPH. It has excellent acceleration, braking and handling. No repairs,squeaks or rattles at this time. As for as appearance and styling-IT's a "CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE" What more can I say other than, It's FUN to DRIVE

Me Happy — At last, my love has come along...Better than any car I have ever owned or driven. Blazing fast, with impeccable road manners. Great power without being all over itself. Looks like a million bucks without costing a million. Under 13 second quarter mile and 26mpg , what's not to like? Almost half off sticker (60,000) with 6500 miles on it. Who needs room for more than one passenger? Best American car built that isn't a Z06 or ZR1(also Corvettes).

Vette Review — If your looking for good looks with LOTS of power this is the car. Remove the top for near vert experience! 0-60 in only 4.0 sec. 6 spd manual is mandatory for this car. With Z51 pkg can add additional exicitement for handling. As a major benefit MPG is awesome!

Great Car But Bumper Is Plastic — dislike nothingg! the car is great it handles as well as almost any car on the market including high end racing cars such as the lotus extige and ferrari, this car has more than enough power to even use it

Bottom Line.. Its A Great Car, Well Worth The Investment — performance is great... acceleration is also really good, I like the fact that I can just slightly tap the gas and be flying down the road at 100 mph.. braking is just as well as the car itself, handles like a charm.. handling.. for those that don't own one.. to me it seems like it oversteers, but not by much just enough. All of this comes with a heavy price tag.. 70,000 plus.. depends on model though, if you want something with more power.. it'll put a dent in your wallet at 100,000+...

A Great Car To Own, Dosn't Depreciate Very Much And Keeps On Pleasing. — I can't say anything bad about the 08 Vette. I wanted the dual mode exhaust, a $1200 option but was disappointed with it. You get a little more sound on start up and if you go over 3500 RPMs. Last wseek I found a product called mild to wild on EBay. About $100 and another $50 to have it installed. It comes with a remote that allows you to switch from closed to full time open any time you want to. Now it sounds like a Corvette should. I never turn it off. I got the car in October 08 and drove it mostly on weekends. Now you can't get me out of the car. The car looks great, performs great and now it sounds great. If you have dual mode, get this kit.

Holy Crap! — 0-60 in 3.4 seconds is a rush and 0-100 in 8 seconds is also freaking awesome! For having quite a drag car set up, it handles like a BMW or better! It is insane! Fish tailing and spinning it out is as thrilling as anything!!!

My '08 Is Great! — Great acceleration, braking, and handling - a blast to drive! Never fails to put a smile on my face when I get behind the wheel! Just wish our summers were longer as it is a sad day when it gets parked for the winter.

Corvette Z06 — Performance - Simply said.... PERFECT! Great Speed/Acceleration ratio. Build Quality - Great. After a little bump with a small pole it didn't damage the car as bad as I thought. Appearance - Just look at the car. BEAUTIFUL! Cost - Too much I'm afraid. But my friend has one so I am happy that I can drive it ^^ Fun Factor - Chick magnet... Need I say more?
