My Take on the C7...

The C7 has definitely got car enthusiasts talking since the concept debut.

Some love it, others hate it. There's no in between.

I personally love the new look.

In my never to be humble opinion... Since the C4, I thought the Corvette design was tired and outdated for being the pinnacle of the American Dream and Sports Car.

Good riddance to the round taillights. UGLY! The angular ones just scream... "Back off!"

The angular body and overall lines of this instant classic remind me of the F-117 Stealth Fighter. Futuristic and menacing looks, but in a graceful, lady-like kind of way.

The "get-up and go" and overall performance takes a backseat to no one, but gives an inviting, confident feel to even the most novice of drivers.

Homerun Chevy! Homerun!

Gotta agree here, GM knocked this one out of the park. First saw this beauty last April at the NY Auto Show. My dealer tells me my Stingray is about eight weeks out.

I'm only okay with all of the black vents with the medium-to-dark colors. No argument at all with how it drives--fantastic. Finally has great steering.

Well said!!

This is the first Corvette that I've ever really liked and just had to have. I ordered it back in November and should be picking it up in less than 3 days. Excited to be joining the Corvette family...
