I've thought about getting a C6, and I always get that feeling I'd miss the s2000 too much. Just seems a little more special than a vette if you know what I mean.

no, not so much.

congratulations! As you acclimate to the feel you will be surprised with how well it handles and brakes. Of course, as soon as you have a few miles on her, you get to experience the full thrust of the LS3. You'll forget (mostly) about the S2000 as soon as you powershift 1-2, 2-3, and wind it out

Thanks guys.
Yeah, I'm pretty happy with my choice, but I feel like there's something missing

That feeling will go away the first time you open her up and toss her through a few turns. The C6 is deceivinig, it loses that "big" feeling once you start to drive agressively. The power in stock form is sick but wait till you get the car tuned.

Congrats and welcome to the dark side!!!

100% , It is strange how the car feels more nimble and agile the harder it is pushed. Up to the point that you end up off road. Get out to an AX ASAP and explore the limits.

Congrats. I have such a soft spot for cross-drilled rotors. I saw a modded black C6 as a car show a few months ago. I had some type of kit on it. It made me drool. Its really not for me but the car deserves every ounce of respect.

I felt exactly like that when I drove my C6 home from the dealership. I was like "something is missing".First time you take her out and wash her and stand back and look you'll be saying "Damn this car is beautiful and I own it ".Enjoy your ride it doesn't get much better.

PS I still like my S2k better for here in the mountains but I'm an old guy and drive slow now!!!!!! Sometimes..................................

Wow nice car. Right another review after break-in. I like everything but the wheels, they don't look agressive enough to me, I like the split spoked wheels or non polished a bit better.
