Default OMFG!!!........ You guys are pathetic!

My first Corvette ......2000 C5...... Owned for only 2 years..... Was going to be my last! I was 40 years old at the time....... And felt I was the youngest owner of a new Vette at the time! To me...... The look and all...... It was an "old man's car"....... I told everyone after I got rid of it! And it seemed that everyone who owned one.......'was old!

Now the looks and lines of THIS car....... All I can say is WOW!!!!

All you guys bitching, moaning & complaining....... Like little old ladies......

I say ...... GREAT!

I hope none of you buy this car!

Why???).........

...... Because I am #12 on the Criswell's list....... Will have the car this Aug/Sept........ And I want to be the ONLY ONE ....... That has one!

I'm going to be the Cat's Meow!

Keep the Hate going....... I love it!

And every time I see it driving down the road, I'll still say "Gee that Corvette looks silly with those Camaro tail lights".

No an old man's car is a Buick, or way back than an Oldsmobile.

If you had gone to a corvette club you would found a mix of people and ages.
So pathetic is someone who doesn't know what they are buying and makes
assumptions.

Is the new C7 offered in Beige?

Hahahah Congrats on the "Cat's Meow" there, Old Timer.

Better secure your license plate now: C7 NO12.

Or is it going to be: PRRRRR.

Congrats! What color?

I've gone to a few Corvette get-togethers. Most are my dad's age.

Funny about the "old man's car thing". When I bought my 95 Vette in 1995 I was 46 and my wife used to joke that you mostly saw old farts in Vettes. I have to say this has become even more true with the more recent models. It seems that with each generation past the C4, the average age goes up 5 or 10 years. The car has become more "civilized" but less "attainable". An article yesterday in the LA Times about the unveiling of the C7 even noted that the average buyers were 51 years old. It cracks me up when I see a recent model Corvette and see a white haired guy who clearly looks out of place in the car. I guess that is what makes the world go round though.

I own a 1987 Grand National with only 16k miles on it, and I say different. Nothing old man about it.

On the C7, yep, I agree, a bunch of whining Cemetery Village folks. New car rocks. A step in the future, not to the Geriatric clinic. Way to go GM!!!

Why do people still insist on it having Camaro lights? Are you really that blind? Where is the resemblance? There is none. Man, the ignorance.

Camaro tail lights look like chrome chalices full of red wine. C7 tails totally different, as is the rest of the rear. People wanna complain go check out a 1971 Camaro (with the optional spoiler) vs. 1971 Vette.
