I would seriously look for an '08+ in the C6. It is worth it.

A C5 isn't the same thing (unless you would have gone for the Z06.) I think I'd rather have the S2000 than a C5.

In 2008 GM started offering an optional exhaust on the Coupes and Convertables that has butterfly valves built into the mufflers. They can be opened for a more aggressive sound. (They also open on their own north of 3,500 RPMs.)

There is only one cam in a C6. Although it is more expensive to replace than you might think. Driveablilty does suffer in a car with a cam.

I'd suggest you test drive a C6 if you are interested. There is nothing that can help you evaluate it better than that.
