Of the C4, C5 and C7, the C5 is my favorite Corvette I’ve ever owned. Went back to the classic styling and reliability. My C7 blew up the torque tube because of the 4 cylinder shutdown…recommend an override device like Range if you drive a C7. Yes, the interior of the C5 is slightly basic and aged, but I’m adding a single-DIN CarPlay touchscreen head unit to modern things up. That’s the great thing about the C5, so many aftermarket parts and goodies to upgrade the car. Last year of the pop-up headlights. I won’t list all the reasons people love the C5, I’ll just say it’s my favorite.

Nothing better than a 505hp Corvette with an manual and the top down!

Great car, not missing anything, I’d compare it to a c6 convertible

I owned a 2008 C6 for 10 years, sort of got bored with it and sold it last year. Thought I would like a Miata and bought an RF Miata in January. Big mistake on my part. I immediately had sellers remorse. Long story short; sold the tiny Miata and started searching for another C6. Found a one owner 2009 coupe and brought it home. Could not be happier! Why? Comfortable seats, smooth ride and plenty of power. Went from a convertible to a coupe so we can take an outlet of small suitcases for longer trips.

The C6 speaks for itself but this is an amazing car. Worth every penny
