2017 Grand Sport Corvette

GearheadSS · 07-29-2016, 12:39 PM

Thought I would share some pics of the new Grand Sport since they're shipping out now. This one just arrived a couple of days ago. I loved the '96 GS and I love this color combo on the new one.

Very nice...but I need my back seats.

Car and Driver just tested one. I was kinda disappointed as it was barely any quicker then the SS they tested. 3.8/4.0 and 12.2/12.3...figured more of a difference considering the Camaro is heavier. Guess the Camaro continues to over achieve.

That blue GS is gorgeous. Definitely something to work towards one day!

LT1 powered Stingrays have been pretty much in that range since day 1. No reason to expect a handling package would improve 0-60 or 1/4 mile significantly.

The blue is a beauty!

Well aware. But it does have wider, stickier tires...

^^ wider typically = heavier

On a tire lol, the few ounces won't matter. Plus, they are non run flats, so they probably actually weigh less...

The Black one looks extremely good.
