I traded my c6 corvette today for an 06 slr. I pick her up tonite. platium with shale interior. can't wait. I've had both c5 and c6 corvettes but now i'm ready for some comfort and still have the sporty look. I've been a member of the c6 forum for a few years, but now I'm here. :cheers :cheers

Welcome ocool

If I have this right, I think you are so excited that you said slr instead of XLR (eXtreme Luxury Roadster). If so, Welcome we have many posts that can help you answer questions about your new 06, especially when things go wrong, mostly when challenging the nav system, and electronics on this car. They can be a handfull, but we are all here to help
bob:cheers

Welcome OCOOL, we all know you will be SO COOL in your XLR.:party
I traded my C6 also for XLR. C6 is awesome and I do miss it but you cant beat the comfort of XLR. I think the XLR-V will appeal to C6 buyers as its really a luxury vette.
I am seriously considering the same trade soon.
Really like my car. Picked it up last nite and put about 150 miles on it today. I liked the C6 but this XLR is fantastic. It's an 06 and had 9 miles on her. Had i known how great a car it is, I would have made the move sooner. I've had a 2000 C5 for 5 years and then an 05 C6 for 6 months. Its not the hot rod the corvette is, but it sure makes you feel good driving it. You don't see that many around so it really gets the attention. People can't believe how the top works. really sweet.:cheers

Hi ocool,
welcome to the club:cheers
I´ve also went to an XLR after 3 C5 Vettes and you`re right, it`s the Luxo-Vette,
or the Corvettes rich uncle:glol
I´ve had the Corsa exhaust on my Vettes and since sept. I have the new Corsa system on my XLR - I love it. If you are plan to put a other exhaust-system on your XLR - just di it!:yesnod

You are welcome to drive up to Arlington anytime if you want to see (and drive) one that has been in service for a little more than a year.
