My official 2014 Corvette Stingray Review with PICS!

CoachSpence8 · 10-04-2013, 01:11 PM

I received my black Corvette Stingray Z51 a few days ago and wanted to write you all a review that I promised I would give you. This car is absolutely incredible! http://www.joshspencerfitness.com/20...ingray-review/

I need to stop looking at black Corvettes before I start wanting another black car.

Kev... too late for me!

Incognito and vader-like... these black Stingrays are intimidating while looking sharp!

Very nice review. And the car looks great, especially with the red calipers. Thanks for posting!

Nice write up. Gives those of us that are stuck in the "long wait" queue, something to dream about.

Just wanted to note that the "...2 separate triangular points underneath the grill really gives the car a very sporty look" are actually there for a real purpose and not for looks. They were put there for the European market. The cars over there are required to have a system that forces pedestrians that you hit (must happen a lot over there) over the top of the car instead of under it. The reason being that most people survive going over the car than under it. Think of them as the old cattle guards they use to put on train engines. GM was looking at just putting them on the European cars, but made the decision to just do all vettes the same, so you can thank the Europeans for those little triangular points. (This info was briefed at a seminar for the new Corvette by a GM Corvette Engineer)

And I have used ventilated seats in a truck before, and on a hot day, they are wonderful.
