I like Porsches, but also like corvettes. I've never owned a 'vette. My dad had an '82. It was fun. I prefer the looks of the C5 to the looks of the C6, but you can't argue with the performance of the C6 over the C5. I think the C7 is pretty darn stellar looking. I was driving to work one day and had only seen one or two, so I wasn't super familiar. I saw something on the road up ahead of me that looked pretty cool and European. I got my phone out and was ready to snap a pic, but when I got close enough, I figured out that it was a C7. I like them from all angles.
If I had to pick, I'd have a Porsche, but I'd love to own and drive a 'vette for a while. I've got a soft spot in my heart for a SBC.
And of course, the early models, say starting in '55 or 56 up through '67 are all very hot. For C3 it's only the first 2 or 3 years and the last year that I'd have.
