Looking ahead to the new C6 I took out a 2 year subscription to R&T last October ($36 including postage to UK). They've been slow getting started and the first copy arrived on the doormat this week with C6 on the cover! As well as C6 the contents include C5 reliability survey and customer reaction. Reliability is above average and most participants (91%) said they would buy another.
The C5s best attributes are listed as
1. Performance
2. Handling
3. Styling
4. Engineering
5. Value
Other articles covered the Cadillac CTS-V with ZO6 engine and also Goodwood Festival/Revival (great events). Not bad for £2!

The survey found the C5 more reliable than US average with areas identified being mainly the high quantity of electronic systems. Plus,
Battery is mentioned - I suspect related to the electrical load. Mine was replaced under warranty at 2 years old.
Brake rotors and tyres - perhaps due to the suitability of Corvettes for the occasional track day! (Step forward Te51cle)
As regards failures that would leave the car at the side of the road it came out twice as good as average - Blackpool eat your heart out!
Overall a clean bill of health.
