Still Tryin - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By Vette Crazy - October 22 - 5:50 pmThis is my 4th Corvette (93, 99, 02, 04). I dont know why I keep trying. Ive loved Vettes since I was a kid and keep hoping someday Ill find one that doesnt have problems. This one has had problems with transmission (hard shifts), broken stabilizer links and brakes squealing for 2 years. Dealer said brake squeal is normal after their 4th attempt to fix. All 3 C5s were convertibles and all leaked around the windows when driving in the rain. All of my Vettes averaged about 3 visits to the dealer per year for repairs not counting normal maintenance, with each visit being at least 2 days. You would think I drive them hard, but Ive been told I drive like a little old granny. So thats not it.

Not Your fat, bald man driver - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By Martha in Plantation - October 19 - 12:40 amI am a 5 ft 7 natural blonde. I know people expect to see a mid-life crisis male when they pass me. I love the Vette, but the ride is nothing like my Cadillac SUV. My boyfriend drives a BMW convertible, and people always think he owns the Corvette and I own the BMW. The noise level on the highway with the Vette is bad. I wouldnt think of a long trip in it. I just had too much disposable income when I bought it, either that or my mid-life crisis set in! I love the Corvette "wave" from other owners! Everyone should own one Vette in their life!

No car comes close for the money - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By Nat04Z06 - October 17 - 10:00 amThis is the best car you can buy under $100,000. Other cars may be faster, others may get better fuel economy and some may look better. But nothing on the road does everything as well as the Corvette/Z06.

fun in the sun - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By patrick crowley - October 17 - 10:00 amThis car is great for the ego, scary FUN to drive, predictable handling at the limit, the only downside is the 1st to 4th shift which is not always predictable.I do not understand the comments about cheap interior. To me its just great. Sure its not as luxuruous as a maserati or mecedes but then again its only a fraction of the price!

Corvette #5 for me - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By HD Shive - October 1 - 12:34 amThe Corvette Z06 is a remarkable car. Its fast, beautiful, handles and stops like very few cars can. These cars are priced well and fairly inexpensive to own. Mine gets 30 MPG on the highway and routine maint. can be done by most owners/enthusiasts due to its simplicity.

2004 Comemorative Convertible - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By Jak - September 4 - 10:00 amLove it so far! Traded my "2003" 350Z since the upgrades werent coming through as promised by the Nissan dealers. The "Z" was awsome but the vette just blows it away in style and power. After seeng pics of the C6, I decided to grab the last year and commemorative edition of the C5. Its prooven and I prefer the old style looks over the new European style of the C6. The new version has some nice changes (400hp) but the front view and plastic grill look like the cheaper imports.

More Improvements, are you kidding me! - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By Vette_Adrenaline - August 18 - 4:44 pm2004, black C5, 8k miles. This is by far the best car I have ever owned. Handles great, The horsepower is excellent and gas mileage to boot. On a recent trip I averaged 31.5mpg. I was blown away. I kept pointing to the dash and laughing to my wife. This was totaly unexpected. Im 6 ft 2" tall and this thing is comfortable, the HUD and all gauges are easy to see at a glance. All adjustments easily reached. This is now my daily driver and not a day goes by that I dont get home without a smile on my face. If you dont fall in love with this car, then there is something seriously wrong with you.

What A Car! - 2004 Chevrolet Corvette
By John P. - June 11 - 10:00 amWhat an OUTSTANDING Car! The Commemorative Edition Convertible is a great color combination! Car receives nothing but looks wherever you drive it. I have waited a long time to be able to afford a Vette, but the C5 made it all worth it!
