I totally agree with you Richard, I don't think anybody in this thread said it is "good" for the engine to be reved high or driven hard. However, it's a sports car and unfortunately some people never enjoy the car the way it was intended. An extreme example; I talked to this one guy the other day that has a 2001 C5 low mileage vette and he told me he has never driven it over 35 mph and he is afraid of driving it on the highway for fear of rock chips. He won't take it to car shows either because he afraid it might get scratched
It's a C5 for crying aloud...they made 250,000 of them! Who are you babying it for? The guy was 65 years old and I'm thinking this guy seriously needs to get a life....he probably doesn't have a lot of good driving years left. Why waste them?
