I have C7 envy

How can you envy something that isn't available?
Any corvette is a great car to have. I agree that the new C7 is pretty awesome, but don't get caught up in "newness" hooplah. Be grateful for what you have!

Doesn't matter what year or what generation you have..... you my friend own a CORVETTE and that puts you in a unique club!!
Enjoy what you have or buy a C7....either way, life is good.

I love the look of the C7, but I still love the look of my C6, I can wait until the 2nd year, and hopefully they will come out with a bigger horsepower motor and work out any bugs.
I will be giving Mike a call as soon as they anounce the bigger motor.

I am currently shopping for my C6 and first Corvette...I would be happy to own almost any of the generations, but the first of what I hope to be many will be a C6. BTW, my wife fell in love with the Cyber Gray C7, so at least I have the best ally possible when that time comes. I was not real impressed with the renderings, but the pictures changed my mind...and I expect the first in person viewing will be just as impressive.

two different cars. do like me, plan on waiting for the rollout of the higher end models, and then decide if you trade up, or have both!

C6 of Year Finalist (appearance mods) 2019
I still love my C6 but the more I learn about the C7 the more I want one.
It looks great in AW.

I am a little envious also but... my 2011 only has 6k miles on it and I would be looking at 25 to 30k to upgrade.
So, I guess I'm not that envious.
Love the one your with.

Each to his own but I feel just the opposite, I'll be chuckling at people lining up to buy such an ugly car. Looks like a Camaro slept with a ricer while dreaming about a Ferrari. Someone went way over board with the sharp edges/lines. To me it just looks...cheap.
Has anyone looked at the engine accessibility? Header install went from easy to good luck.
Each to his own but ignoring the obvious difference in value I wouldn't trade my 07 base coupe even up for a C7 base coupe. However, the seats, much better than the C6.

I love the new look but I'm planning on waiting for the third model year. It will be white. In the mean time, I'm driving the second best Corvette.
