I drove them both before buying the IS-F.
The C6 feels a lot faster and weighs a lot less. However, it actually didn't feel as sharp as the IS-F, despite the limits being higher. It feels big, wide, etc.
The interiors aren't even comparable.
Transmissions are obviously different.

The big difference between the 2... is... you see corvettes EVERYWHERE U GO... on a typical day out for me... i would bet i see atleast 3-5 corvettes.. not necessarily a new one.. but one of them... get something different!

Ya man. Tell you the truth i love my F. Its one bad as car. But when you have friends like mine that all run lower than 11's youll understand

If the TT ISF was actually a quality product i would go that route.

Idk. I just want a faster car right now. Maybe a TT lambo for a graduation gift
