BTW - if Chevy was going for the "attract younger buyers" look with the C7 they may have missed the demographic. The three drivers all look to be pushing 50, graying, and fat. Not that there's anything wrong with that...

The song is a cover (obviously) by Killswitch Engage.

The music the guy is listening to is...WTF?!?!

BTW - if Chevy was going for the "attract younger buyers" look with the C7 they may have missed the demographic. The three drivers all look to be pushing 50, graying, and fat. Not that there's anything wrong with that...
A. The guys driving the test cars are Engineers with GM, most of which are pushing 50, graying, etc.

B. Did you really think GM would give 3 test mules to a group of twenty-somethings and tell them to "drive it like they stole it"

C. This video has been posted in this forum several times over the last week, cool video, but nothing new.

How anyone thinks the C7 is already production and being driven by customers is beyond me

This is getting old.

Got to love it when people are very late to the party.

I'd imagine that if you're an automotive engineer, unless you're absolutely brilliant, you're going to have to claw tooth and nail to get a coveted spot on the Corvette team rather than designing the cooling system for a mini van. By the time they get there, they're probably at the apex of their career, which usually happens to most people in their late 40's or early 50's.

Anyone else notice the taillights flickering on the one in front, like there's a short or something?

Seeing more and more of this car in videos and pictures....it's such a busy looking car. GM really missed the mark and totally screwed up the Corvette this time. It looks almost Japanese. And what's up with the round fuel door? Totally messes up the whole side of the car. They should have kept it as is. I guess they decided since they have square taillights they'll make the fuel door round, just to mess with us.
