I know what you mean! Not shown on this particular video but backing up onto the gate from the second row to unload makes me nervous just thinking about it! Have you ever participated?

Admittedly I was not a big fan of the new design on the intro. but this video simply blows me away. What a gorgeous car.
Still not touching the first year, but 2015 is looking very, very strong.
Had an 85, then a 98, then #550 05, so I am into early adoption, but there is so much that is new, I want to give them more time to work out the kinks, plus I am hoping for an 8 +speed tranny.
Thanks for posting very, cool

Besides if you wait a year or two it will give them time to change the rear and paint the WHOLE thing body color instead of that half black crap ! Love the whole car except for that.

Remember one popular mod to the C5 was to change the rear and paint it half black instead of that one color crap

Nice video however something bothers me about it. Go to 6:08 on the video and listen to the loud ticking sound out the rear. I certainly hope that the new LT1 is not suffering some loose valve guides.

Cool video. I am a fan of the C7 design. But, why the round gas door? I think the "angular" C6 gas door would have looked better. The other 99.9% of the exterior is right on. I even like the rear.

IMHO the convertible looks a lot better than the coupe.
The car sounds great!
What model is the red Caddy that was on the trailer?

Actually the first car (coupe) is Laguna Blue, the second car they move (vert) is Night Race Blue. I wish it were sunny out so it would be easier to see the blue metallic in the paint, but for me the blue top is what gave it away. That and its neither black nor cyber gray, so it had to be something.
