Stretch Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Saw that yellow one at the arthritis show. Good looking car for the most part. Still cant get over the tail end though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 I like the rear of the car, I must be in an extreme minority. I like all the changes, it's about time for some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littleguy Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Corvette's are such great great cars, the only thing that keeps me from getting one is that I can only afford one toy car and the idea of showing up to a meet with 30 other Corvette's just isn't appealing.

Tripleskate Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Haters gonna hate. Yellow on a 'Vette isn't in my Top 5 choices, but it's still a mean looking car. A cam'd/modded all black C7 cruising down the freeway at night would likely make a Prius piss it's pants in fear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledhead36 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I personally, really liked it. I have thought Chevy really has been missing the target with the corvettes for some time. I think this one will sell fast. Btw, on the road closing for the MAG 50th anniversary event for Lamborghini, it really sucked. A police escort usually means you get to drive over the speed limit, this was a 40- 45mph parade downtown. Not fun at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmonda Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I saw a black C7 "Stingray" at the vette show in Lancaster over the weekend. I'll admit that I am always slow to warm up to new generations of vettes. But I usually find something I like and then it grows from there. With the C5 I thought it was too plain. Now it is my second favorite generation style-wise after the early C3s. I thought the C6 was too angular the fixed headlights too foriegn. After driving my C6Z for a few years the whole look seems to fit. It is a modern interpretation of the same theme. The C7 is an exception. I don't see anything there that says corvette to me. Looks like a Fisker or something like that with a camaro rear-end tacked on. Just about everywhere you look on the car it is awkward and unidentifiable as a vette. I predict there will be a major re-styling mid-generation on this one. It is just too damn ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owndjoo Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 def dig the c7 back end. They have finally gone more "supercar" with the styling instead of just a normal car design. Props on the cutting edge styling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 When you see the C7 next to a C6, the styling is revolutionary without losing subtle ties to older Corvettes. It's definitely not as clean as late C4/C5/C6 styling (busy, angular exterior) but the rear quarters look a lot more Ferrari than people give it credit for. I'm not sure if GM thinks they can steal Ferrari buyers away with a $51-$100k sports car but the performance numbers are seriously impressive, especially at that price point. As a former 'Vette owner myself, I saw my FiL on Sunday (has owned 'Vettes since the '80s and currently DDs a 2003 Z06) and the first thing he asked me was what I thought of the C7. We had discussed it on numerous occasions over the last 12-18 months as he's been thinking about replacing his Z06. I told him without hesitation I thought it was an amazing car to behold for the price. STILL...I have some reservations about auto reliability in general for first-year models, and I question GM quality as of late...especially with the teething problems other cars have shown with DI engines. Time will tell, but I'm definitely a fan!!! Look forward to seeing them more and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Pomade Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 The yellow one, not so much. The red one looks fine, if not good, to me. I anticipate that I'll like it more and more the closer I get to actually buying one. If I'm standing next to one on the showroom floor, I'm probably rambling on and on about how exotic it looks and how much I can appreciate the changes in person, blah blah fucking blah. I know me.

Dr. Pomade Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 P.S. Would really like to see the C7 in white. Second choice would be black. I know, duh. But I'm just saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Alex- Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I think having the A pillars color matched would make a big difference in a good way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 In person, the yellow looked better than the black...but moreso because of the bright contrast to the black accents. White would be a sharp color on a C7 fo'sho'. Especially if a potential owner was considering another car at one point...
