The new vette looks pretty sweet.

    The interior looks nice in the pictures but I need to see it in person. Fit and finish generally is something GM doesn't do we'll.

    read yesterday that they finally ditched alot of the plastics for the vette and went with carbon fiber. also said they dropped 99lbs in the frame.

    hmm...wonder what the 07's and 08's will be going for now.

    30K for an '08 with 4K miles

    prices should drop a bit once the c7's hit the show room floor.

    Depends on the popularity of the new one.


    Glad to hear they dropped the plastics. Now if they would only do that through the rest of their lineup.

    My brother used to have two Vettes. He lives in Florida and one time we drove one from New Jersey to Massachusetts for my grandmother's funeral. It was a little freaky on the highway, being so low and having the tractor trailers next to you and the car you're in looks like it could fit under some of those trailers. Freaky!!

    How can you hate something that goes from 0 - 60 mph in under 4 seconds and only costs $50K?

    The new one looks nice!!

    But as others have said, GM isn't known for their attention to quality interiors or finish.
