    Winter Driving and Rust Proofing

    Thanks guys, this is a great forum and will pop in once in while. I'm still interested in the Vette, but decided to wait until both my kids are finished with university, so another 5 years. On a side note. My older son is studying Mechatronics Engineering and has been working at FCA in...

    Winter Driving and Rust Proofing

    I went to the Chevy dealer with my family to order the car, but unfortunately they were not giving a fair price for a trade-in. So no Vette for me this time. :( Ended up at the Ford dealership and bought another Mustang GT, which I am using all year around. Will try again in a couple of years...

    Winter Driving and Rust Proofing

    I used to store cars in my garage for the winter, along with my bike. At the end of the day, it's a car and should be used. So I plan to use it as much as I can. And once I'm done with it, will give it to one of my kids.

    Winter Driving and Rust Proofing

    Ha! The last post almost made me spit my coffee out. Lol Thanks for all the great advice. I live and work in Toronto, so our winters are not as bad as Alberta. I will be getting winter tires as I have done with all my cars. And if the weather is really bad, I can always work from home or...

    Winter Driving and Rust Proofing

    Thanks for the quick replies, I'm looking at a new Corvette (2017). I knew this would raise eyebrows with winter driving the Corvette, but I plan on keeping the car for about 10 years (as with all my cars) and it will be mostly depreciated by then, so why not make good use of it? The third car...

    Winter Driving and Rust Proofing

    I'm in the market for a Corvette and will be a daily driver including winters. I understand that some people do drive their cars in the winter. I'm coming from a Mustang GT which I've been using for the past 11 winters and had no issues. My question is around rust proofing, I understand that...

    C7 Manual or Automatic

    Check out the new cars on autotrader.ca. There are a bunch of 2016 models with discounts and you may find the one you're looking for with the 0% financing. The 2017 don't seem to have any discounts and the rates are higher at 4.99%. If you aren't considering a Grand Sport, then consider the...

    Kerbeck Corvette 100 - Z06's

    My prediction is that by next year, there will be surplus inventory on the US dealer lots, and the restrictions/allocations will be lifted for Canada. Like anything else that is hot, they eventually equalize with the market demand.

    Toronto auto show. What Vettes there and in what color exterior and interior

    Look's like you were there when there was no crowd. There was a lineup to sit inside the car when we went, and not opportunity to take any decent pics. The goal was for my wife to actually see the car and sit inside. We had ordered the car without actually being able to see it in person...

    Toronto auto show. What Vettes there and in what color exterior and interior

    My thoughts were the same, I also found a difference in the seats. I'm average 5'11" 185lbs and found the competition seats a bit tight. My preference would be the GT seats, they were more comfortable. And the suede steering wheel... not for me.

    The Canadian C7 buying experience

    I was able to place an order before the price increase last week, but have to agree that the idea of allocations is nonsense. This is the first time I am going through it and understand the frustration everyone is going through (including myself). We are fortunate to have someone like Owais...

    Price Increase

    Look's like there was a price increase of $2180 on the base model. The price on the main Corvette page jumped today. The Build and Price page still has the old price.
