"I have owned my new 2012 Corvette 2LT hardtop for a couple of weeks now. All in all, a pretty awsome car and a great value for the money. Like any car it has its stront and weak points. I'll start with the bad: 1. The seats, although much improved for 2012 are still a little short in the bottom cushion. About another 2" in depth would have been perfect. Don't get me wrong, the seats are very comfortable. I just wish the car had a wee bit more bottom cushion. 2. No wood trim, but the standard carbon fiber is very nice. I traded a Jaguar XK for the Corvette, so I am used to being surrounded by wood in the cockpit. 3. The built in navagation unit is not very intuitive, but it is a well know fact that factory built in units in most ANY vehicle are not nearly as good as an off the shelf Garmin. The built in nav unit in my Jaguar was even worse then the 'vette's . Now the good: 1. Beautiful automobile, classic lines, instantly identifiable. Nobody mistakes a Corvette for anything else. In this world of bland generic automobiles, the Corvette stands alone. 2. FAST, FAST, FAST! I am talking G-force pinning you in your seat fast. And this ain't even the the fastest 'vette you can buy. Geez, I would REALLY get in trouble in the "faster" car. 3. The handling of the car is quite good. Maybe not as nimble as a 911 Porshe, but alot of fun in its own right. I like to find places with lots of curves, then I just jam the gas and go! 4. The "fit and finish" is as good as any car I have owned and even better then my Jag. What I am talking about here is the way the doors fit the body, how the sections of the exterior marry up, and the overall "tightness" of the car. Very, very, nice. So in the end, the car is much better then I thought it would be and an extremely good value. I would recommend the 'vette to anyone looking for a true sports car. It IS "the" American Classic...."

"I order a 2012 Grand Sport Corvette and did a museum delivery. The museum Delivery is worth every penny and the VIP tour of the plant was great. If you are going to buy a new Corvette, do a museum delivery you will never regret it. My vette is great 436 HP and handles like a dream. It is a convertible, auto w/paddle shift, HP exaust and cross drilled rotors. The Grand Sport has the Z06 suspension."

"Just pick up a 2012 cenntenial edition ZO-6. Traded my 2009 DCT M3. The M3 was very nice but just never quite connected with the car. Was a bit disappointed with the handling and overall lack of torque of the vehicle but it was quite comfortable. This is my second vette previous was a 2001 C5, which I had for 8 plus years. The 2012 is leaps and bounds ahead interms of driving feel and exterior design. The microtones/suede interior is very nice and the carbon fiber package just makes the vehicle look sinister. Corvettes are great cars if you know what it is which is a true sports car rivaled by few. It is not a daily driver though it could be and yes the interior is really nice but could be a bit nicer but it actually feels as nice as the M3's. But dollar for dollar performance and looks of this car cannot be beat. I look forward to many a Sunday drive with this vehicle"
