The new C6 Vette goes around the Top Gear test track. Guess which car it's *almost* as fast as? ;) It's 41mb, so definitely not dial up friendly.

LoL... Jeremy Clarkson is one funny mofo (tall dood that bashes anything american). The kid, however tried to defend the corvette on the last few minutes of the clip. The stone example was pretty damn hilarious, exaggerated for that matter on how the old design leaf spring is still used. I think it has tremendously improved from previous generations.

For the money, i think the C6 is one hell of a deal! :twisted: :D

Top gear is always funny, but I found they are very biased to American cars after I saw that clip.

They still try to live in 19th century calling US a colony.

Corvette is a great deal. I like Corvette.

pretty funny video... great find jan! but i think people are being too harsh on the vette. :lol: as for the leaf springs setup on the rear suspension, it's been around for since the mid 80's, it's a pair of leaf springs running horizontally across the rear, but it's independent double wish-bone rear suspension.

Great video. I just saw the review of this car on the Car and Driver show, and they mention how it would be very hard to not put it on the next top 10 list. I guess it really depends on how you look at it?!
