Here's what I want in a C7
Most likely what I want will not be in the offering, some for sure, but in any case here goes.
I want the base C7 automatic. Add any options that will create the lighest car, NPP exhaust and a 3.15 gear. I say the 3.15 as that is what my current 08 C6 has and should be in all automatic Corvettes. Radio and Onstar delete. When I'm in my Corvette I listen to the engine, not the radio. Only way to really enjoy a Corvette, IMO that is. 18" wheels all the way around. 18 x 10 in the back ready for drag radials. Don't want the heavy 19"/20" wheels/tires or heavy brakes for sure so the Z51 option is out. I'm a drag racer so the larger brakes and extra cooling is not necessary. Doesn't hurt to dream! |
Stripped down to the bones like the original theory of the Z06. This is going to be the wife's car so it will be a Z51 3LT for us.

Definitely. I will buy and drag. But not buy to drag. I want the amenities for this kind of dough. Otherwise id buy a copo camaro and be done with it :chevy:

My preference is for a champagne cannister behind the passenger sear, built into the WALL MOUNTS. Security devices that go off if body temp change is detected within 8 feet or door knobs are touched and key fob is out of range.

My 08 C6 auto has 2.56 gears. Good for 31.5MPG on the highway. :D The standard 18s/19 wheels will be desired, and maybe a 17 will fit easily on the rear of a C7 like it does on a C6. :) And maybe the GTO spare tire for the front will still work too. We shall see! :) |

I want to add one more thing: No warranty and the price reduced by $3-5K. I'm going to tune it so will void the warranty anyway. I suppose a looser converter than factory would be a little too much to ask but why not. Something like a 3200 Yank stall would be perfect along with the 3.15 gear. I get 28-29 mpg running a steady 70 mph with my 3.15 gear. With my 2.73 I got 30-31. I'll sacrifice 2 mpg for that gear. |
That was an interesting post.I wanted a brand new vehicle and quickly when I realized mine was wrecked. Luckily, I came across a website that made it really easy on me. I did not have to wait for weeks to find out if I qualified for an excellent car loan rate. The site even helped me find a car dealership that was perfect. How often have you needed more info concerning a pre-owned or new car and turned to an online search.Read more here

I do know that the wheel width is the same no mater what diameter wheel(18 to 19" or 19" to 20"). I wonder how the base model brakes actually stop. I am like you, I want this car more for straight line acceleration |
