I think the reason for why the large amount of dirt is massed more to the center of the car and not the sides is probably to do with the diffuser channeling more air up from the bottom of the car at the sides rather than at the center above the exhaust and creating an area of low pressure aka dirt magnet.

Full CF look targa panel side to side.
CF look side mirrors CF look rear spoiler. Not sure if it's real CF laminate or the dipped trick. Dirty butt end common to all cam back tails. My 1986 always showed up dirty before anywhere else on the body. My 2012 ZL1 does the same thing. I believe it's an aero thingey. |

I love this car more each day. The velocity yellow is awesome, not liking the black mirrors and rims, spoilers. The vents in black is cool, just not the rest. The stripes are done nice, but , not for me. Never cared for tranformer type color combos. That being said the Corvette and Camaro, have never looked better, go Chevy!! All you lucky owners, I envy ya'll.

P.S. I would love those stripes on an all yellow C7, just to much going on with this particular car. Sorry to be nit picking,lol..

Both side rear quarters are "caulked in" and taped over or painted over. Must'a been a really bad fit.

That's two exhaust components (Nitrogen & Carbon) reacting in the vortex with the wet snow/rain. Otherwise, you'd have that crud/road dirt all the way across the rear. Flared tips exacerbate that collection.

I'm from the Northeast and I've NEVER seen a Corvette attempt to even drive in the snow in my neck of the woods, that's just sacrilegious The filth on the back of it should be worrisome if it's not resolved, especially if it blacks out the chmsl and/or taillights. Hopefully that gets resolved before production without affecting the design of the back end. I love it.

the stripe looks nice, but i wonder if it's really a Grand Sport protoype. If the Z51 is as good as it should be i wouldn't think a GS would come around for a while...or at all if they do a Z06.
