I have the 2010 Consumer Reports Buying Guide issue on my lap as I transcribe this data, guys...Sorry. Reality bites.
Still, if you prefer the 'Vette, GO FOR IT. That's the beauty of capitalism, i.e. the govm't cant impose a "Lada" on you (for those of you who don't know, the Lada was an abysmally BAD Russian vehicle widely distributed in Cuba and Russia, back in the '70s and part of the '80s. It was a PIECE OF JUNK!) Myself, I own an '04 Z, whose only repair has been the driver's side power window motor. In December of this year, she'll be 7 years old, and it behaves like a 2009 model! Her original owner got her then. Greetings!
