Still prefer the old muscle stylings over these new shells :/ They seem more stretched out each time.. However, nice interior reminds me of misses Dad's Alfa.

Thread moved to off-topic. I'm glad they are making big changes to the Corvette finally, looks good.

Finally chevy did something right, make a car that looks italian for boring old people so finally young people can enjoy and afford a fun and insane C6 just gotta wait a few more years
dont get me wrong i like the look of the c7 but the c6 imo is a better looking car

After driving it on gran turismo, it has more than 450hp. Thing gets sideways on racing tires. The only other cars that can do that in my garage? 900hp viper and 800hp 300C. I'm thinking 550, 575.

I don't understand what you guys want?
A 911, Cayman, and a Boxter all look the same, but no one cares.
A Ford Edge, Escape, Exploder, and Expedition are the same.
The Altima, maxima, and GTR are similar...... but yet again, no one seems to care.
But when Chevy tries to keep with it's brand everyone is like..... That rear end is from a camaro. Really? What did you want it from? Out of thin air so it's not recognizable at all?

It's not like I'm picking faults on it, I'm not saying that it's a bad car or anything. I was just pointing out that they do look similar that is all.

100lbs lighter then the C6. 26MPG (not that that really means anything being a corvette but LS's are known for amazing fuel economy)
the start up video is making me like it more, cant wait to hear a WoT acceleration vid
