Default the C7 makes the C6 look old

the C7 is beautiful and makes the C6 look old by 20 years. the only C6 model even close is the Z and ZR1. and i have the Z and i still think the C7 is a great move forward.

the C6GS is actually silly looking compared to the C7. the C7 is beautiful. GM designers should have been fired for putting gills on a car.the C7 is beautiful. the round tail lights are old and outdated. the GS is ugly.

JMHO and humble opinion and non abrasive opinion. and my .02. the C7 is beautiful and the GS is ugly. respectfully.

The wide body attracts me a lot more than the c7's ugly rear. Everything else on the c7 I love. I just hope they come out with a wide body. Now that would out date the c6 imo

no the C7 rear is beautiful, you are wrong. respectfully and JMHP and .02. not to be taken in a mean spirit but with a grain of salt. the GS is ugly if you want to talk ugly.

Is this yet another attempt to try and pump up the C7, a "Corvette" in name only that very few Corvette fans seem to be warming up to? VETTE Magazine recently noted that letters to the editor are coming in SIX AGAINST to every ONE in favor of the C7 'styling'. I guess among true Corvette fans the C7 Corvmaro is bombing, and rightfully so...

The C6 is a great looking car that is instantly recognizable from any angle as a Corvette. All the iconic styling cues (except for hide away headlights which would have made the awesome C6 even better)...The C6 is free of lesser car styles and clutter...No Camaro tail lights, no Batmobile rear end, no 1984 Celica GT liftback hatch as the Aztek/Camaro designers saw fit to trowel on to the C7.

The C7 is a disaster, and many of us are sorry it happened the way it did. I'll never buy one, that's for sure, and I currently own 5 (real) Corvettes.

Who'd have thought GM would screw up the first new Corvette since 2005 so badly? Who'd have believed that back end?

C6=Awesome. C7=Awful

Apparently an opinion shared 6:1 in Vette Magazine...

Can't wait for the cars to come out and the fanboy/poseurs and GM marketing interns to die off.

sir do you have an opinion of your own besides some irrelevant magazine?

any corvette with a hatchback = fail IMHO. pintos have hatchbacks. lol.

the C5Z is the greatest looking Z made.

the C6 base is so generic and plain jane. the Z is better but it still has a pinto hatchback. who puts a hatchback on a sports car, silly.

and the GS is really silly and plain ugly.

no one cares if you have 5 vettes, thats silly to even say, silly to act like you have authority because your the big man on campus with 5 vettes. it does not make you an expert, it just makes you have 5 cars with hatchbacks LMAO!!!

with all due respect to your braincells and IMHO you are wrong and GS is ugly and a hatchback is silly lol. the C7 is beautiful. good buddy.

I happen to like the C7 - A LOT. So do many others. If you don't, so be it. Please just keep in mind that your point of view is a personal opinion and not a fact.

do you have to resort to name calling? can you not stick with the subject matter? the C6 base has a hatch, which you probably own and it is outdated and ugly.

Talk about a guy stuck in a time warp. I had an '02 Z. Great Car. But, that was then. My manual GS outperforms my '02 Z in every way.

And, by the way you sound very ignorant. Some would call it dumb. But, I will give you the benefit of a doubt.

Oh good. Glad you were holding back, and being non-abrasive.

Respectfully, I know it's 'Shark Week' but how many times did your parents say you need to mow the lawn before they'll buy you that C7 of your dreams??
