@LastTransAm2002 i understand but i guess its about personal choice and i myself love performance cars and dont like anything that compromises performance. i mean its all about the looks and the driving in a car like that and quite frankly i think convertibles are for people who wanna show off and stuff you know. and in most performance cars the convertible version ruins the cars lines.
coupe with removable roof? i hate that design on any car. why not a proper fixed roof? this makes it have a mixed personality of a coupe and a roadster.
I bought this car few months back and was not expecting the kind of response I get on roads. I always see people taking pictures, making movies, thumbs up, honking, smiling and just in aw. I don't like to show off but car itself is a head turner. Awesome car folks!
@ about 29 seconds he says, "You can get a Grand Sport for about $55,000." Actually you can't. They always load about $10-15,000 worth of options which bumps it up to close to $70,000. I have yet to see a Grand Sport without a boatload of options, most of which aren't necessary if all you care about is performance and handling.
You are not speaking factually. I paid $46,200 for my GS Corvette and it has the optional exhaust. There are several large Corvette dealers that will make that deal all day. I talked to one about getting a 2011 Z06 w/Z07 package and they were selling them for 73,200. Thats a car that stickers for almost 90k. This is the best time to buy a Corvette, GM is desperate to get rid of them!
@markko17 It's called build-your-own. Go to GM's Website and look up the options before you pop-off. You can load whatever options you want or don't want.
@markko17 i got a 2011 grand sport 2lt trim msrp for 55k after taxes, wheel and tire insurance, it was 61K for me. finding the lower trims are indeed hard but they are out there.
I usually hate GM with a passion but the grand sport is the best, upgraded base model engine, and a Z06 body all for what I priced at $53,000 what a steal its a supercar, all those features they mentioned are BS thought, who needs the bose stereo, the power seats and bluetooth, plain is better
The color is oh "so 1993" wonderful! ...and the car is "so" even better - - - Actually, it's almost identical to 1967 Marina Blue on Corvettes. Very Classic Corvette indeed.
@AnimepimpYT Actually it's really not. It's extremely cheap and doesn't feel good in the hands. A $50,000 - 60,000 car shouldn't have the same steering wheel as a $15,000 car that is the worst in it's class (cobalt).
Also, where did you get the idea that the cobalt is the same as the g6? The g6 is a midsize sedan comparable to the malibu. The cobalt is on the same platform as the old cavalier, which was also one of the worst cars in it's class.
@luckyace1111 Bullshit man. i dont care if my car share a steering wheel shared with another car, i dont mind saving money personally all i want from my car is amazing dynamics and thats what the corvette gives you, performance without the pretense. you obviously dont know much about cars if all you can say is it has a steering wheel that the cobalt shares. Does the steering wheel make th cobalt suck? no it does not. does it really matter here? no it does not. your just a poser.
@AnimepimpYT I agree 100%. I have driven a 2008 LS3 and all you end up doing is squeezing the hell out of the steering wheel because the car pulls to 100mph really quick. All you care about is thaty the car is pointed straight and there is nothing in front of it when you stab the throttle.
What a cool car.

Less than 4 seconds? I thought the 505HP Z06 could do it in 3.8 or so, and the Grand Sport keeps up with that?

I paid 52K for a 2011 GS coupe, 2LT with NPP. Based on cash back incentives etc
Most GS's you can order, mine took 5 weeks from signing to deliver with the exact (2) options, in the color I wanted
