IMO, it's overpriced. At $39-40k, I'll take a C6.
At first I was sort of laughing at how the C6 pops up in every thread as an alternative. But then it dawned on me, it's actually a huge compliment to the Corvette that it hits that mid price range with a lot to offer. If someone is asking about a 911TT or a GT-R or 1 Series or an M3 or an Elise or even a wide range of used cars, someone can (and usually does) suggest the C6 as an alternative. Not everyone would choose to buy one, obviously, but the range of cars that it can compete with is pretty impressive.

yeah, brand new LS3 base corvettes can be had for 38k. I know a guy that bought one. You have to be willing to wait for the right time and it might not be your favorite color, but a brand new 430HP vette for 38k...unfreakinbelievable.

I think it looks quite nice. Dodge deserves a pat on the back.

That dreary interior illustrates the skin-deep nature of its whole super-retro exterior aesthetic. Which makes it incredibly hard to appreciate this car in anything more than a superficial fashion. I mean, hello, re-skinned Dodge Magnum:



Wonder why it takes them so long to bring the Challenger to market, when it basically appears to be yet another thin shell on the 300/Magnum/Charger platform?

I like it! I'm not a huge fan of the front, but that can always be fixed. I really like it in silver!
