The most recent 2008 C6 styling has barely changed from the old version but that's probably a good thing. </p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_4.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="4 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">HANDLING</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">It's easy to assume an American sports car won't suit UK roads, but the latest Corvette deals with curves ably. It's easy to drive hard too. Enter a corner too fast and the front-engined Corvette just washes predictably into understeer - from there you can get the tail out if you like with a bit more throttle. The C6 always feels like a heavyweight, though, compared with lithe European rivals.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_3.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="3 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">COMFORT</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">European-spec Corvette's are more stiffly sprung than their American counterparts, which helps control the body movements of this 1500kg sports car. That does mean the ride's firm, but bump absorption isn't completely compromised. And the driving position is good too. There's an adaptive Magnetic Selective Ride system on the option list, but it's not worth the premium.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_2.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="2 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">QUALITY + RELIABILITY</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Cabin quality is akin to a mid-range French family hatchback - if you've ever owned a modern Renault or Peugeot you'll know what we mean. The Corvette's a million miles from a 911, but most people could live with it. Although annoying niggles like a failing electric boot release has been reported on some test cars.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_5.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="5 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">PERFORMANCE</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Masterful straight-line speed and the roaring symphony of Chevrolet's V8 engine ensure breathtaking excitement. An abundance of torque means you never doubt that the C6 would be capable of 190mph plus.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_4.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="4 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">ROOMINESS</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">There's a very useful amount of space in the Corvette, even when it's compared to genuinely useable sports cars like the Porsche 911 or Audi R8. That's because the Corvette's built to meet the demands of the American market, and its no bad thing. The cabin could be packaged more cleverly though, freeing up more storage space.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_1.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="1 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">RUNNING COSTS</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">A Corvette would not impress your bank manager. Thirsty American sports cars like this tend to depreciate very quickly, and that's before you consider how much petrol the 6.0-litre V8 uses. Or how much a left-hand-drive car with this sort of performance costs to insure.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_4.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="4 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">VALUE FOR MONEY</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Chevrolet will sell you a generously specified Corvette C6 for under £50k, and it will comes with a proper warranty and full dealer support. That's excellent value for a bona fide supercar. Annoyingly, if you lived in America, you could buy a Corvette for half that price.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_5.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="5 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">STEREO / SAT NAV</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">High-end electronics come as standard on the Corvette C6. The sound system is particularly impressive.</p><div class="storydate"><img src="http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/graphics/str_white_1.gif" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6 rating" alt="1 stars" style="margin: 0pt;" align="right" height="12" width="72" /><p style="font-weight: bold;">ENVIRONMENT</p></div><p style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Buying a Corvette is about as environmentally friendly as dowsing a polar bear with petrol and setting it alight: the C6's V8 emits a whopping 316g/km CO2.</p></div>Authorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18015418772094057991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6014250828877477191.post-25585668540328775692008-09-06T00:09:00.000-07:002008-09-06T00:38:51.991-07:00Chevrolet Corvette C6 Fifth Gear ReviewHere is <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">Chevrolet Corvette C6</span> review from Fifth Gear. <a href="http://corvette-trading.blogspot.com/2008/09/chevrolet-corvette-c6-5th-gear-extended.html">To read Extended Review by 5th Gear click here</a>.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" title="Chevrolet Corvette C6" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9J2jj7DhPit1a3Iu7yUy5bzHTuQoYkSU8760xRe0FRLl4MogBW7MEOVDE83QMAM5kC9x82r7zxTv3eUG4rOX5-AUA-YZoAqFBaQlWfb2BgcQi4urRr5JIPVpvIGNlGm8vQUdYEC-fX4c/s1600-h/Chevrolet+Corvette+C6.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9J2jj7DhPit1a3Iu7yUy5bzHTuQoYkSU8760xRe0FRLl4MogBW7MEOVDE83QMAM5kC9x82r7zxTv3eUG4rOX5-AUA-YZoAqFBaQlWfb2BgcQi4urRr5JIPVpvIGNlGm8vQUdYEC-fX4c/s400/Chevrolet+Corvette+C6.jpg" alt="Chevrolet Corvette C6" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242804815468106946" border="0" /></a><strong>Recommended.</strong> The latest <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">Corvette C6</span> is raucous, rapid and relatively cheap to buy. It's still flawed, but its powertrain is much improved making it more exhilarating to drive. You'd have to really want one to forgive the sky-high running costs, but the noise from that V8 alone is almost worth it.<br /><p>This is the sixth generation of the <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">Chevrolet Corvette</span>, America's long-standing sports car icon, now revised for 2008 with a host of new technical enhancements. It's the Yank's equivalent of the Porsche 911, a high-performance legend that's stuck to the same basic rubber burning, V8-power, rear-drive recipe since 1953. </p> <p>But, The Times They Are A Changin', as Bob Dylan once sang, so now the GM small block V8 that's at the heart of the modern Corvette has been upgraded to offer better fuel economy, cleaner exhaust emissions... oh, and bucket load more power. </p> <p>In fact, as global oil prices reach record highs, Chevrolet's gone and made the Corvette's LS3 engine even bigger, increasing its capacity from a wimpy 6.0-litres to 6.2-litres. This means this latest <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">Corvette C6</span> puts 435bhp at the mercy of your right foot - nearly ten percent more than the outgoing C6 - so it'll shove you from standstill to 60mph in 4.3 seconds and on to 186mph if you really let it flex its muscles. That's faster than an Audi R8. </p> <p>The revised C6 also has a new smooth paddle-shift auto gearbox with shorter ratios, which combined with the engine's extra urge to markedly improve acceleration and, happily, make the Corvette a more refined drive when you're not trying to break land speed records. </p> <p><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">The Corvette C6</span> is available with a targa roof and lighter, harder, track-derived variants like the ZO6 can also be imported for a premium. On the basic C6, the optional exhaust pack we had fitted to our test car is an absolute must. It frees up a further 9bhp and provides the Corvette with the thunderous, raucous soundtrack it deserves.</p> <p>Yet despite the extra glut of performance, the <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">2008 Corvette C6</span> really is more economical to run than before. It'll achieve over 20mpg in town if you're light-footed, according to Chevrolet. We weren't, to be honest, but the C6 didn't drain the tank quite as quickly as we'd expected. That is relative to other supercars with massive V8 engines, mind you...</p> <p>OK, so through the bends the Corvette still feels like a blunt instrument compared to a Porsche 911. And high-tech Japanese tools like the Nissan GT-R are on another planet. But criticisms about the previous Corvette's wooden steering have at least been addressed; it's now much more feelsome than before. And the standard C6's chassis set-up has benefited from the hardcore ZO6 version's Nurburgring development programme too. It handles a challenging road perfectly adequately but, even so, the muscular Corvette's feels at its best bashing up straight, wide stretches of asphalt. </p> <p>Reasons to run a mile? Well the Corvette's cabin quality is wide of the European mark, it'll depreciate quickly and it's available in left-hand-drive only. </p> <p>But, buying a new Corvette is not as crazy an idea as it used to be. It's got a decent sized boot, is relatively comfortable day-to-day and you can import one through official UK GM dealerships, with a three year warranty. The latest 2008 powertrain enhancements make the Corvette a more useable, more realistic ownership proposition too. But its bargain basement price remains its strongest asset - you won't find a genuine supercar icon for less than £50k anywhere else. </p>Authorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18015418772094057991noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6014250828877477191.post-49804261744587191992008-07-12T16:09:00.000-07:002008-07-12T16:12:48.027-07:00Corvette ZR1 In-Car VideoThe General has released the in-car footage of the Corvette ZR-1 lapping the Nurburgring in 7:26.4, hitting 180 mph on the 12.9-mile straight and beating out the Z06's time, set in 2005 by Jan Magnussen by almost 17 seconds. Jim Mero is behind the wheel and just as a reminder; the lap was done on the same Michelin Pilot Sport 2s as the production model, and retains the same ride height, engine calibrations and emissions equipment, along with running pump gas. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vsY9-Sn_AxA&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vsY9-Sn_AxA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Authorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18015418772094057991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6014250828877477191.post-55291860298947340942008-06-30T08:53:00.000-07:002008-12-12T21:50:33.852-08:00What Corvette model are you most interested in?Hello all,<br />You may noticed, that I've finish conducting a survey "<span style="font-weight: bold;">What Corvette model are you most interested in?</span>" Here are the results: <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" title="Corvette survey results" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtV6jVv-Spn1oqmkvkbNAMRS75fWZMtIok1GKfFhA9wEr-ZZc3MW6hfwjErowMiKa6h-9Ge6skVlFGgZFDRO19sTyYD5pXcuvFcuQrLeuUKoxTYZVBEm0JGprq3B5oiO3kfGqLcxETR5I/s1600-h/corvette-survey.GIF"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Today, that dream is more in reach than ever. The fourth generation or "C4" version of these cars are absolute steals on used-car lots.<br /><br />These potent performers made their debut for <a href="http://corvette-trading.blogspot.com/2008/05/1984-chevrolet-corvette-video-ad.html">1984</a>, replacing the soft, boulevardier 1968-82 "Shark" design. With vastly improved aerodynamics and extensive use of aluminium in its construction, the C4 was enormously more capable than its predecessor.<br /><br />Throughout the C4's long production run, practically every model year brought significant improvements, including revised suspension, higher-quality interiors, and new electronic performance aids. Horsepower for 1984 was a somewhat tame 205, but it went up by 25 hp the next year and continued to steadily climb. A convertible was introduced for 1986, and the following year horsepower reached 240.<br /><br />For 1990, the C4 got a redesigned dashboard, followed a year later with an exterior facelift that included more rounded front- and rear-fascia styling. For 1992, horsepower jumped to 300. From 1990 to 1995, Chevrolet offered the limited-production <a href="http://corvette-trading.blogspot.com/search/label/Chevrolet%20Corvette%20ZR1">ZR-1</a>, which was powered by a 375-405hp Lotus-designed V8. Output of the regular small-block-V8 C4 peaked in 1996, at an optional 330hp.<br /><br />With strong V8 power and exceptional handling, any Corvette C4 is a tremendously potent machine, even against some of today's pricier new performance cars. Best of all, you can find loads of good C4s practically anywhere in the U.S. for less than $10,000.<br /><br />When shopping for a C4, it's best to look for as late a model as you can, to take advantage of the many refinements the design received over the years. The most desirable cars are the 1992 and later ones. Besides having considerably more power, their softer styling is less 1980s "high-tech" and thus doesn't look as dated at this point.<br /><br />Early C4 coupes (1984-91) show up by the truckload for less than eight grand, with a fair number of them listing for under $5000. But realistically, you should expect to pay $6000 or more for a decent one. Scrounge up at least another thousand or two on top of that if you have your heart set on a good 1992-96. As for ZR-1s, forget about 'em - they currently sell for about $25-$40k.<br /><br /><a href="http://corvette-trading.blogspot.com/search/label/Chevrolet%20Corvette%20Convertible">Convertibles </a>command about a 30-percent premium over equivalent coupes, which basically puts the 1992-96 ragtops out of our $10k Budget-Speed cap. Earlier convertibles, however, are still within range.<br /><br />So while the performance-car world is drooling over new C6s or shopping for used C5s, these cars' fine predecessor is going for clearance-sale prices. And that's great for you - a good used C4 can offer more thrills per dollar than most performance cars, making them well worth a look.<br /><br />For more about affordable performance cars, along with drive-test articles on today's hottest sports cars, sport compacts, and muscle cars, go to http://www.autiv.com/<br />About the Author:<br /><br />David Bellm is a seasoned test driver and automotive writer.
