What Makes The C6 Corvette So Great?

Out of all of the Corvettes, if you ask ten people what their favorite Corvettes are you are going to get ten different answers. Hopefully one of those answers is the C6 Corvette and there is a reason why that is an answer. This sixth generation of the Chevrolet sports car was around from 2005 to 2013, and it was around for so long because of some amazing features.
 
Here are some of the biggest reasons why the C6 Corvette lasted as long as it did, and it also continues to be on the road today. The biggest goal of the C6 Corvette was to tighten the body of the vehicle a bit, allowing the Corvette to be smaller and much better in terms of space while also perfecting all the details that made the C5 a wonderful car.

It Was Two Cars In One

The Corvette was introduced as a coupe and a convertible, and the coupe came with a removal panel on the roof, allowing you to have some fun in the sun while driving along. The coupe does only have a hatch for storage though, which might make it a better racing car but it does lose out on storage, while the convertible has a trunk that not only blocks a lot of road noise from reaching the cabin, but it also adds some more storage. Either version is pretty good, so don’t be afraid to look for either version whenever you are looking for your C6 Corvette.
 
However, both cars are fast and come with the LS2 engine that produces 400 horsepower and 400 feet of torque. Whether you are driving them in either the six speed manual or with the automatic transmission, you will get a pleasant ride no matter what. Plus the car can be driven on both the road and the race track and you will get some amazing performance out of the vehicle.

The Car Is Long Lasting

Even during the heyday of the car from 2005 to 2013, the car was praised by critics for the massive improvements made over the C5. The performance, the stronger engine, the improved interior, and other benefits were all considered to be interesting, especially as a bargain which the C6 was described as.
 
Even some of the most expensive cars at the time were unable to beat the cars’ performance, and even in the following decades the C6 is still well sought after by collectors as well as other people who love classic cars. Many people are still looking for a pre-owned C6 Corvette because it runs just as well as the cars that are coming out today. They also want to get the Corvette pimped out with some amazing C6 engine bay accessories, like the Executive Cap Cover Set with Chevy Bowtie emblem, the Chrome - 1.00"  Corvette Hood Button Kit, and the Colorful Vinyl Inlay 5-Piece Engine Fluid Cap Covers.
 
The later versions of the Corvette especially don’t have any mechanical errors and quality issues, so if you can get your hands on a well maintained one, you will still be able to drive a fantastic car and discover all of the other reasons that people hold the C6 Corvette in high regard!
