I respect the corvette for what it is....a good all around car at a great price. I haven't had the pleasure of driving a C6 yet so I can't comment and/or give my driving impressions but I bet it is an incredible car. I agree with you on the whole bad rap thing. People have alot of misconceptions about the vette as they do about the boxster on other sites usually because they have never driven them or taken the time to know them. It does not have "leaf springs" anymore. The C5 and C6 have fiberglass mono-springs...they haven't had stacked metal leafs for years. Since these springs lay down instead of nearly straight up like a traditional coil-over setup they lower the cars center of gravity and are a lighter system altogether.
