    Z06 Roof Problem

    Some of you may have heard that the new C6 Z06 often lose their roofs when driving. Well, one owner decided to deal with the problem his own way. Watch the video all the way through and watch the background for what appears to be a yellow gallardo, a red 360 spider, and what i think is a 355 with tubi? Some one know what that last one is?

    It's just a piece of fiberglass, not really a big deal to me.

    Many of these cars have had engine problems and such. The yellow car looks to be a Murci as when I paused it I swore I saw its "wings" up.

    They outsourced the glue used for the fiberglass roof, its the quality of the glue, not the car.

    yeah i did, but i stand by my post

    im sure if i kicked any roof hard enough it would rip off at some crease, especially if it is figerglass

    like i said they are fixed, not removable, as in not meant to be taken off for a sunday drive

    edit: as for the guy that said this equates to overall bad build quality, lets take any car you want whether it be an ferrari or lamborghini, if you pull or kick hard enough something will fall/rip off...that would be common sense, not bad quality

    It didn't come off because he kicked it; He was kicking it to get it off completely because it was loose and flapping around.

    That said, I don't think the Corvette is a low-quality car for what it is, and I never have.
