  Love My ZO6 - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Big Gar - November 26 - 10:01 am

  This is my first Vette.It is truly unbelievable. It cruises the highways smoothly with no effort at all, then downshift and hold on it is gone. MPG is great, as I have made several long trips and averaged 26.7 mpg. Who needs a hybrid? The heat of the center console is tolerable for a while, then move your leg, just too hot. The faster I went in this rocket the better the handling felt. Taking mountain roads with signs saying 25 mph or 35 mph on tight curves and even hairpins at twice that speed was nothing for this car. Have had two other makes of American built so called rockets back down from this car.

  Always wanted - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Anthony - November 23 - 12:31 pm

  My 6 speed Vette is an experience every time I get into drive it. Compared to my previous 2001 Vette I can not wait to drive when I have the time. Full of power.

  results from my own Z06, 2006 - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Todd Harris - October 17 - 2:32 pm

  I drive my Z06, 2006 everyday. I was expecting harsh ride and bad gas mileage. I have been pleasantly surprised. I get 17 around town and 24 on the highway if I drive consertively. The car is a true supercar but totally reliable. It runs just like any other regular Corvette but the 505 horsepower is absolutely like a thrill ride at the amusement park. The worst part is replacement of the supersoft run flat tires. Insurance is not bad considering the car but I also have a perfect driving record. It runs around 1800 annually for me, a 40 year old male.

  What a machine - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By N Virginia - October 17 - 6:34 am

  A fine quality car that I use for just about anything. Lots of luggage space and the seating area is very comfortable. I drive this car on the back road twisties, to work, and to the grocery store. The steering is precise with plenty of feedback sliding through the corners at over 1g on the heads up display. All in perfect control in a perfectly balanced car (on a track of course). The shifter is perfect as well as the pedals and steering wheel now that it adjusts fore and aft in the Z. The more you learn about this car, the better it gets. You can tell that this car has had tons of R&D.

  Americas best for a reason - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By one4fun94566 - October 15 - 5:56 pm

  Picked-up at the factory and drove Route 66 back to California via Mississippi a week BEFORE the big blow! WOW! What a car, 3300miles in 9 days. No problems, great comfort, surprisingly good MPG, and NO tickets! Cabin noise is well less than a 737 and seating is far better...and its just about as fast. The exterior design is silky.

  2006 Corvette - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By JIM STRICKLAND - October 9 - 11:03 pm

  I have owned 50 Corvettes since 1967 includig big blocks and small blocks. I have always felt like my 1967 Vette with 425 H.P. was " The Best of The Best" ... until now! I picked up my new 2006 Victory Red Coupe at the Museum last January ... and after driving it less than 11 months, I can say without a doubt, its the "Best Damn Vette" I have ever owned! Over the years, I have owned Rolls, Jaguars, Ferraris, Porsches, and many muscle cars ... but I am totally convinced this Vette is the "Best Bang for the Buck" of any automobile ever built! 0-60 MPH in 4 seconds! ... 26+ MPG on the road and nearly 20 MPG in town! I can have it serviced in any Chevy Dealership in America!

  My Mistress - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Merrit - September 21 - 6:59 pm

  Better adjustable seats would be nice and the interior could be better compared to the Euro cars I have. Performance and fun factor is unbeatable. This car is the best bang for any dollar. Need a change holder instead of a lighter/cig tray. If you can, buy one!

  1st vette - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Ron - August 29 - 11:51 pm

  Ive had the car for about three months. At first I felt like I was driving a large sedan. After driving a Mercede SLK for 6 years the 06 Vette felt much bigger. Had to take a good look each time to remember it was a 2 seat sports car. Once I adjusted to the comfortable ride, I was able to grasp the power and the fantastic handling. Realy like the Vette and dont mis the Mercedes. I am not sorry in the least that I bought the car. Time will tell on reliability

  Dream Drive - 2006 Chevrolet Corvette
  By powrcat - August 26 - 5:50 pm

  Baseball, hotdogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet! I love my Victory Red 06 Z-51 Convertible. I wash it, dry it, and could stare at it for hours. I have owned an M3, SL500, CLK55 AMG, and this Vette is by far the best of them all. It really is an American dream. I will own this car forever.

  What a great car, this is the second Corvette I have owned. The first was a C5. This is a great car to drive. Wow can it move and turn heads. Plus I get 27 miles a gallon going 80.
