I love the GT350, but as my daily driver the maintenance costs are kind of high (and no I don't want a beater car, I love to DD a performance car). I always loved the C7 Vette, and kind of jumped into the 350 without comparing a whole lot. I did some research between the two, performance and maintenance wise, and it seems like the C7 is cheaper to maintain. Almost 10 more MPGs on the highway (which since I like to do out of state trips, adds up a lot), almost half the oil for an oil change and not some specialty oil you can only buy online, not sure exactly what the brakes and rotors costs are on the Vetter but since the car is lighter and not drilled I'm assuming cheaper and last longer, and tires are also a good deal cheaper, about 800 for a set vs about 1400 for the 350 (assuming you stick with the same MPSS). Only complaints I've really heard about the Vette is that it's hard to get in and out of for some older folks, but I'm 30 so not worried about that yet. Now I do love the 350, and as far as I know I'm the only one in Spring Hill, whereas I see a C7 at least a couple times a day (different ones). So what are your opinions if you owned a C7 and moved to a 350?
