About 2005 Chevrolet Corvette
Overview

The 2005 Corvette is the first of the 6th generation of Corvettes and is a truly gorgeous automobile. The standard model was given an incredible new 400-horsepower 6.0-liter V8. However, the Corvette takes care of its driver and passenger by doing more than just offering a thrilling ride; the console wraps itself around the driver, providing easy reach to its state-of-the-art technology.
The 2005 base model Corvette delivers surprising speed and acceleration for a reasonable gas cost: the automatic gets 18 city/25 highway, while the manual offers 19/28.
The 2005 Chevy Corvette also brings back a feature not seen since 1962: the optional power-operated soft-top. The convertible feature is a welcome add-on for Corvette lovers.
The C6 was a long-awaited release after Corvette racing won many matchups with its Z06. Finally, the elegant muscle car is delivered.

The truck you see behind me and the Corvette is the one that brought to this truly wonderful day 5 supercars. First, let's start with Miss Kentucky, the Vette. This C6 had 404hp (440 for the 2008 model) and a 6-speed manual gearbox that was quite manly, but it was manageable, so I actually liked it ... just like the whole car, to be honnest from the beginning. It looks superb, the V8 sounds great, and on the track, it was able to follow the Ferrari and the Lamborghini, leaving the Aston and the Porsche in its dust! Not bad for a $US 50,000 car! On the road, French and bumpy roads should I add, everything was perfect ... till we went over the speed limit (there was a Toyota LandCruiser in front of us to check that the police wasn't here). Then, the magnetic suspensions didn't seem to bother anymore of confort and I found myself a couple of times driving like an Englishman, on the wrong side of the road! Apart from that, it was fantastic! I loved the Targa roof, easy to store in the trunk, I loved the Heads-up Display, like on a fighter jet, and I loved the performance. We were not nice with these cars, but the Corvette just didn't mind. The brakes were red, a little bit damaged, but it kept on braking and braking, as good as the others (well, much better than the V8 Vantage, that's for sure)! The only other drawback is the stability control (ESP for Bosch, Active Handling for GM) ... it worked on the road... thank God! But DO NOT, DO NOT turn it off! If you want to avoid crashing at least, because somehow, without this electronic aid, the back feels twitchy at the limit, and no matter how hard I like to train, I'm not a professional racing driver, so I spun, again and again! When you do slide, it's wonderful, but on the road, especially on a slippery one, just let the ESP on! Anyway, great car and really well priced!

Not much to dislike. This car is amazing and is one of the best overall sports cars you can buy for under 30k. It gets great gas mileage and turns plenty of heads and performs great at the track. I will miss this car but the one I bought is just like it.

This is my 6th car and it is by far the best car I have ever owned. I have owned everything from sedans to turbo 4cyls and there is nothing better than an all motor V8 making 450whp! I wouldnt trade this car for anything, well maybe a Noble M400 ;)

Great value, love the design and handling of the car. Interior is well thought-out with many upgrades. Engine provides plenty of horse power and the six speed transmission is smooth.
