cintron Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 Originally posted by babbo ive had corvettes- last one a 2001- worst piece of shit ive ever owned- wont buy a corvette again 4 sure wow. what happened that made you hate them that badly?as for the new vette - ugh. I see the RX8's roofline, the NSX's pod-style headlights and the nose of a Viper....This new Vette doesn't seem to have anything groundbreaking about it - it just looks like the style is a bunch of patchwork features instead of one coherent design.Bad idea to only change the nose and keep the rest of the car the same...also a bad idea to make it NARROWER, SHORTER and HEAVIER.

thehog Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 Originally posted by babbo brand new car died on me 3 times in about 6 months- got rid of it- never again- life to short lol one of my best friends mom has a 97 that she got new. The car did shut down on her twice. They fixed some computer problem with it and nothing has ever gone wrong since. My dad got one a year ago with 70,000 miles and has never had any problems with it.
