Corvette C6 Z51

[BLUETHUNDER]

Had the windows tinted now.And spent a weekend in Scotland.Covered 970 miles which cost £188 in fuel.Which i didn't think was bad......









Still loving it.I did the stretch just north west of Glasgow to London in one hit.And just did it on one tank.It was running out as i hit the forecourt.

Not a yank-fan myself, but that really appeals. LHD only I presume, do many come as manuals ?

LHD only i'm afraid.And yes quite a few of the C6,s come in manual.As well as auto and paddle shift.

I could live with LHD, but not auto, sensible ownership costs appeal too.

The big low torque V8's make the autos work quite well, very different to more revvy engines with autos. Although I do admit manuals have a better tactile experience.

With the autos you can get a big stall too which changes how they drive. And with the older 4 speed autos you can get a manual valve body and have full manual control with a ratchet shifter.
