Keep having to remind my self that there are only 2 days left. I think this car is going to surprise a lot of people on this forum. To the point they will want to buy despite what they've said on here.
I think the new focus will be on handling, driver feel, and lap times. As oppose to out and out acceleration. '
Honestly I think w/o AWD and a major shift of the weight to the rear, we will have to concede the acceleration race. But like the ZR1 the C7 will kill the comp in handling and lap times.

Been saying that as well. Its gonna be a big departure from the previous models.
My understanding is that they are holding off on the release of the mag until after Sunday.
Maybe that ex-Apple employee who left the iPhone4 in a restaurant is now a janitor....and maybe he's cleaning the Road and Track offices....well, you get where I'm going....
There really is no overseas market. The Corvette will never sell well in Europe, even if they sell a right-hand-drive version. No one there wants a Corvette.

Trust me. Overseas is out and always will be. Nearly every European country are going to have high import fees and taxes applied to the Corvette, just like they always have. A C6 with all the fees is Porsche 911 and Aston DB9 money over there.
Here, we love the Corvette because you can't buy more car for the money. There, it's the same amount of money as everything else. Outside of price, cars sell in Europe based upon exclusivity. The Corvette isn't a household name like it is here, no one there sees it as anything special.
