Default Gallery for open top C6's and GS

Hey CF members, I am wondering if you guys would be interested in posting up pics of your C6's and/or GS with the top removed, convertible is fine too! I currently drive an S2000 and I do enjoy top down driving, of course, my lust for the corvette is greatened by the top down/removable top ability and I would love to see some pics of your cars! Google is ridiculous and I can't just run a successful search for C6 targa top removed with good results..I also did not see a thread with these images compiled so I am sorry if this is by chance a re-post request. I will say this forum is much better than S2KI..Cheers everyone, and thanks in advance

Nice start guys! I gotta admit it is nice seeing all of these awesome vettes. The reason Im asking for removed top pics as well is because most people take pics with the roof on so it seems...well guys "*****" your pics!

haha, ya the Corvette has the power and obviously with the packages (2LT, 3LT, 4LT) has many more conveniences that the S2000 just does not have....it was made to be that way though. I am loving the pics guys/gals and I am sure others are as well! keep em coming, even those with the "base" (lol) vettes or people who haven't posted on the forum before please feel free to do so here!! I love the look of these cars and I know us "open top" drivers have pictures of our cars

Also, I'm glad to see some of the Targa models with the tops removed! It goes well with the verts

...just a little light hearted joking - I hope you knew that

The s2k was a blast to drive around corners. I just never completely warmed up to the overall look, and it was just too small. Also had to wring its neck just to drive around town and keep up with traffic.

Again, I hope I didn't offend you as it was not my intention.

Lol, hey man, certainly did not feel like I was being offended

Everyone has their own opinion and there certainly is not any arguing with the fact that the car is not too much fun if not going around a turn or in the higher RPM band. Besides, it is your opinion! There are many that agree with you, i.e. the people who supercharge and turbo the S to get more power and a better power band, but I am glad I have a fellow S2ker here

Thanks again for contributing man and trust me, no hard feelings

I'm not into Orange cars at all and think they are ugly but I have to say it actually works on the Vette. Nice looking ride!! In fact, they are all sweet looking rides.
