Interior looks great besides that station wagon steering wheel GM loves. Why couldn't they throw a D-Bottom Steering Wheel in there to compliment the seats.
GM we said NO to the rear end renderings we have been seeing and you did it anyway. A few cents short to make a full buck.

I really needed to see a black one as car 2 or 3.
- red, yes... primary color for the kid in us all... silver was for the grandpa's; GM needed a black unit out there for the rest of us.
It will be more apealing in peson

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the first Fastback Corvette right? For me ,not a bad thing.Tto love this C7 enough to want one, I will have to see it in person . I do, however view the way about this Corvette as I viewed the transition between the C5 to the C6. The C6 corrected all the design flaws that cured the "Land Yacht" looks of the C5. Big overhangs.hugh rear,bland front end etc. The C7 has cured some of the design flaws I find with the C6.The coupe, imparticular. To many chrome accents, rear bubble greenhouse glass, overhangs that are still to large, Badyear tires, poor seats. When the wide body ZO6 came on the scene I viewed it, and still do, as a timeless piece of automotive design at any price.The C7 with it's longer wheelbase ,lowwered stance , aggressive front end ,choice of seats ,and thank God stripped of chrome (accept for the exhaust tips). I see a lot of GS's being traded for this car. Not nearly as many Z Vettes. though. I do not see the rear of the C7 being a deal breaker with the traditional Vette lovers. Not much different IMO to the slight oval of the C5's or the mega ovals of the C4's. The side view of the C7 has it all over any Vette from the C4 on up.Finally upon seeing this vehicle on streaming video over a 60" big sceen at this moment I will be holding onto my Z for a while longer. At this time the design of this C7 has me captivated but the performance capabilities somewhere between a GS and ZO6 makes it NOT a ZO6 and I have one sitting in my garage tonight as we speak. I will be one of the first at MacMulkins door to view this new addition to the Corvette family when it hits the streets this Summer. Looking forward to the C8 unveil.

It's really growing on me! I've been watching some videos from car and driver online and they talk with all the engineers. They didn't want it to look like the old rounded car. They wanted to change every aspect and improve it at the same time. So far I'm impressed!

It's just so busy. Needs to be toned down quite a bit. It's a nice car, just doesn't look anything like a corvette. If it didn't have Corvette badges, I don't think anyone would slam it for copying the Corvette design.

My girlfriend was lying in bed beside me as I was opening the high res pictures and she commented that it looks like a toy!
I really like the low angle shots of it and think it will impress me more in person. Can't wait for that.
Bring it on!
