Guess I'm the minority.
The C7 looks much more modern than the previous gen. Immediately ages the c6. The interior is a throwback to some of the old gens as well and looks more fighter pilot-ish like the article states. However, it looks like a Ferrari California and the rear looks really blocky. Less organic. I'm not a super fan of it like everyone else. Maybe I need to see it in person. I give it a 7 because of the rear. Hope this causes the C6s to go down in price because everyone loves this new thing. |

Ah. That back looks different in the pics from this angle. Not great. Just different.
But that back window is hilarious! Forget blind spots. It looks like house window. But smaller. Does it look cool? Maybe. Is it practical? Hahahahaah!! |

Dude, they are damn near identical and the "spy render" is the next ZR1. They gave everyone a glimpse of the car back in 2011. From your previous posts, I can tell you don't like them...but damn, give credit when credit is due. Last edited by ColdCamaroSS; 01-14-2013 at 04:37 PM. Reason: spell check |

Am I the only one who thinks it's going to be impossible to have the gas cap in that location? Or is it going to barely squeeze past the functional ducting on top of that fender?

Well, I foresee a crap load of used C6 Corvettes for sale at your local Chevy dealers.

If you liked the L99 engine in the Camaro (not many did) you'll love the new LT1 Corvette engine with AFM - cylinder deactivation, and other "goodies".

There is nothing practical about the Vette and that's the way it should be
