Agreed 110%! The more I look at newer cars, I’m glad I decided to save some money and go with the tried and true legend. It’s a great car. Enjoy it and congrats on the purchase!
It being yellow definitely helps plus it has all the benefits of the Z06 such as the wider body and none of the drawbacks (dropped valves). I always liked the styling of the GS it would certainly grab my attention if sitting in a parking lot, but I am a Corvette guy. 😁
Thanks for the kind words. Those are all the reasons I opted for this one. I was going to settle for a bland colored base, but I am glad I found this thing, despite its cosmetic flaws. I only hope to at some point even get this thing to 7/10ths what it can do.
I have done all the modifying things in the past and learned if you want a faster car, just sell it and buy one, mods never really work they always put something out of balance ending in a compromise.
I don’t really get it. American cars have never been known for their interiors, let alone any cars below the last few year threshold. Thanks for the kind words and the views
@@6mtzhp55 v6 2014 camaro lt1 is trash interior that's what I have ya bastards .ya rich boogie suckas probably couldn't even sleep on a temperpedic mattress without complaining it doesn't look as preety as jlos ass in her 20s..wtf!!
They serve a purpose I guess. I mean I like my tech though. For a 90’s-2000’s sports car, I am content with the interior. That being said I just looked at an $85k Sierra Denali and was not the slightest bit impressed with the interior. So it depends on the scale really for me
I completely agree, when I owned my mustang I always had to modify something to be satisfied but I’ve owned my c6 for about a week and I love everything about it it’s absolutely perfect to me 🤝🤝
Glad to see someone else agree with me and not think I’m crazy for that comment. Lol Congrats on the car man. You really will love it. It is perfectly balanced
@@PMPerformance definitely I had to reply, there’s really no comparison for anything in the price range, I’m only 17 so I just bought the base but I think I’m going to steer towards a z06 rather than another pony car it’s just not the same 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Lol, my 11' GS Manual eats Mustangs for lunch. One of my coworkers has a 14' 5.0 GT and he told me the other day he was selling it back to the guy he got it from and wants to upgrade to a C6 GS or a ZO6.
It’s diff kind of car for a diff kind of use. I don’t know why people compare Mustangs to Corvettes. It never made sense to me. I compare Corvettes and 911’s all the time as those are 2 cars I cross shopped heavily
Same here just picked up a C6 GS 6speed with 15k original miles 3 weeks ago already out almost 1500 miles on it and other than some carbon fiber accents I think I’m leaving the rest alone, possibly a AirIntake
Thank you and congrats on the purchase if recent. You will absolutely love the car! It is not the fastest thing in the straight line, but an animal in its own ways
I love mine, but it is a modded street beast. If you don't plan on doing anything to it, the one mod I would still recommend would be an MGW shifter... very easy to do, and changes the whole feel of driving a stick in this car. As many have said, it's the shifter it should've come with, and you'll understand why once you use it.
After adding an mgw to my Last tr6060, I will not touch this thing. It shifts perfectly fine in stock form. I see no reason to change it. All my issues started with shifting in my GT500 is when I swapped the shifter.
@@PMPerformance Well, there you go... "issues" and "GT500" in the same sentence. 😎 Sorry, as a Vette guy, I simply could NOT resist. LMFAO! Understandable with a bad experience, but of all the reviews & installs I watched before buying one, I think you're the first one I've heard not like it.
@@frankw7266 k do honestly think it was related to how ford mounted that trans in that chassis. It shifts well though so I have no reason to change it at this point.
I agree, once a week is just enough👍🏽 plus you keep the miles down, I want to enjoy the car slowly for a very long time instead of all the time for a short time
Keeping it stock is wise. Mods never increase reliability. Own a 2009 base and find the LS3 engine more than adequate for driving on our Pennsylvania public roads. Push the magic button on the console to experience different driving modes before modding. May find that doing that minimizes the desire for performance mods. Stock Corvettes are far easier to sell than modded ones. Less issues too. Enjoy!
Agreed there too! I always ruin the balance of cars. But then again all my cars no matter if the top model or not, always has flaws. I wanted something that hit all the check marks. This seems to fit the bill well. Sometimes I feel I would enjoy more power or that awesome cam lope, but I always remind myself that I actually enjoy driving this thing and my wife doesn’t bitch on road trips in it. So if I keep it as is, chances are I will keep it for a longer period and not break it. Hahaha
I completely agree with everything you said. I have been ridiculed up and down on CZcams for what you are saying, and I am glad to find someone else who thinks the same way. With age come maturity and sensibility. I am a proud owner of a 2013 60th Anniversary Grand Sport Coupe and believe Chevrolet got everything right about this generation with the lines and curves and dependable power train.
@@andrewe4277 Most who ridicule you most likely never owned a Corvette. 90% of used Corvettes are modded. Maybe a telling reason why they are for sell too.
@@andrewe4277 Many Corvette detractors never owned a Corvette. Bought a 2009 for $28k and sold it two years later for $27.5k to a local Chevy dealer. I am convinced that its stock condition was attractive versus a modded one. You have a great C6 and enjoy.
@nikkoalpha2 thank you. Good for thought though…. I just bought LT’s and an intake off a dealer that converted a stupid low mileage Gs back to stock. So you may be surprised that stock cars at dealers were returned to stock.
Bro, it may not be rare but it is special. The public thinks so. Everything is relative. I'd much rather pull up in a Corvette anywhere than a Lambo and if that makes me weird who cares.
1. Corvettes are that special thats why people do that. 2. Interior on these are good. What more do you really need? The interior bashing is over used and little unfair. My red/black interior with grand sport stitched into the head rest would like to talk. Lol
I would love to have the embroidered seats and arm rest. I dunno, for some reason they were never all that special to me. I always thought they were decently common. Don’t get me wrong, I love the car, they just never really snapped my neck and made me want to take pics of a stock one when seeing it in a lot or on the highway.
@@PMPerformance im certainly guilty of doing it. Especially when new models come out. I remember first time i saw the c6 i was like shit the headlights aren’t pop-up. Lol
@@PMPerformance i do feel the 2-tone with stitched headrest & arm rest give it that little boost it needs and custom floor mats. Those small items really add up to a beautiful site.
@@PMPerformance i got lucky and found a red one with the cross flags in red on ebay randomly. Took a year to find a “old stock” new one. Still yet to see a GS one pop up for sale in any color. For sure add to the look. I did see a jake skull one on ebay in yellow i think. Take a look.
Ive owned 2 blazers, and 4 3rd gen Fbodys, a cavalier and now my silverado. The silverado is the only one that didnt have a cracked dash. When i think of quality interior GM doesn't cross my mind first.

My 07 gt500 shifts like butter after I switched fluid out to Mobil 1 full synthetic atf it has an mgw and an rst clutch. I've heard you complain about the shifting or overall feel in your Shelby that Def has not been my experience. Mine used to be notchy and hard to shift ecsp when cold but once I changed fluid it's been fine. As far as aggressive driving I've always been able to snatch gears with the quickness with no issues it's a beast of a trans and feels great so not sure what the issue was with yours. As for your vette I like the c6 I would get one with an ls3 and do cam springs and boost with a 6060 of course if I ever went the vette route. Very cool cars. 😎
I am not the only person that has problems with shifting in the Gt500. I’m actually helping another guy that reached out to me for help and have advised many. I think that chassis is just a lost cause. Just my opinion, but I have had soooooooo many cars. That car had me questioning my abilities. I get into the Vette, and none of that has come about yet.

I have added a few things recently. Nothing crazy though. Funny enough, I have not even changed any modes on it when I rip. I’d like to take it to a circuit this upcoming season and see what I can do with this thing
Yea this car totally needed a radio! I didn’t add cameras yet , but that is on my list. I can’t quite get my radio tuned as bassy as the factory one sounded

I've got a triple Black '10 3lt GS manual convertible. I'm averaging less than 20 mpg mixed driving, it's never been reset since I've owned it (6 years). I'm the 2nd owner, previous is a recently retired Sheriff Captain who ordered it new. I know him, so I know I got a babied gem. It's only got 13,800 miles on it. They're great cars, and I've had a ton of muscle/sports cars the last 37 years.
Could someone pls tell me if the c6 grandsport has taller gearing like the c5 corvette,for example,first gear was from 0 to 50 mpr?Thank you in advance.
I cannot look at a C6 with a stock steering wheel. Upgrading that steering wheel makes it a better car. The stock C6 steering wheel is horrendous. Got mine custom from vivid racing. Looks and feels incredible. Like a true sports car
People look and take pics because they don’t know the differences and don’t care. It’s a Vet. It’s iconic and you are blessed to have one.
Very true.

broh .. was waiting for the .. go time .. no go time ? get on it bro !@ hahahahaaa
I don’t know what that means? Care to elaborate for us retarded folk?
You mention long trips. How many miles per day?
I don’t drive it daily. Long trips as in like 200 miles trips so far
Could someone pls tell me if the c6 grandsport has taller gearing like the c5 corvette,for example,first gear was from 0 to 50 mpr?Thank you in advance.
I believe the GS gets a slightly shorter gear ratio than the base
I cannot look at a C6 with a stock steering wheel. Upgrading that steering wheel makes it a better car. The stock C6 steering wheel is horrendous.
Got mine custom from vivid racing. Looks and feels incredible. Like a true sports car
I have been eyeing up aftermarket wheels. Vivid sells custom wheels?
You mean because it’s a Chevy Cobalt parts bin GM wheel?
Exactly; the new wheel makes it a better car. The stock wheels is horrendous
What year?
2010
We have the twin. If you want send me your email and I will send you some pic, possible upgrades if you are interested.
Btw, all upgrades I have done, were mostly cosmetic. Last one was two tone black / yellow leather seat covers.
Thanks for the view. I would love to see your car.
Friend me on IG please. I do not typically post my email address on CZcams as it gets abused.
