Corvette C6

Description

2004 marks the introduction of the 6th-generation Corvette as a 2005 model. As with any new-generation Corvette, anticipation is rampant C6 represents an important departure from C5 both in terms of exterior and interior styling and chassis dynamics. It features a revamped platform (to be shared with the new Cadillac XLR roadster), fixed headlights (for the first time since 1962) and an edgier, more compact body. This GM-licensed book takes the enthusiast on an illustrated tour of how C6 developed from the drawing board to the production line.

Phil Berg has spent more than 20 years covering the auto world for magazines and newspapers, including Popular Science, Maxim, and Parade. He has also been an editor at Car and Driver and AutoWeek magazines. Berg is the author of MBI Publishing Company's 2003 bestseller Ultimate Garages. He lives outside of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with his wife and two children.

Vette Magazine, October 2007"While Berg's words flow crisply throughout, the real glory of this book lies in its magnificent photography and illustrations ... Factor in Berg's extensive research, painstaking documentation, and unprecedented access to the story's key players, and Corvette C6 makes a worthy addition to any Vette fan's permanent book collection."
