I have never driven a C6 but I drove my cousin's C5 and compared to my Boxster it's a bomb, I like it a lot but it's not the same feel as a boxster I just feel more connected to the road in my Boxster. I read a lot of reviews about the C6 Vette and as per MNBOXSTER'S quote it doesn't get the respect it deserves. Compared to some high end european cars I think it's one hell of a bargain.
