Default Corvettes at Carlisle 2013 meet the Stingray (pictures)

Chevy and Kerbeck had a bunch of C7 stingrays on hand the fit and finish on the new car is just amazing. The NPP exhaust is super loud in sport mode and quit in econ. Thanks to Eric from the bowing green plant for answering all my questions and then some.

Check out the pictures here

fixed the flickr permission view away

I found out a couple of things about the option levels

So on the 1lt you can get 2 tone interior the second color is just seats, on the 2lt the 2nd color is seats and door, 3lt seats door dash.

also there are 3 roof combos the 1lt comes with body color painted carbon fiber, you can order natural carbon with edge painted body color or lexan roof as options. I had thought all 1lt cars would come with natural carbon.

the mode selector controls the NPP in eco mode it is quiet and allows 4cly mode and pulls timing. in sport mode 8cyl is locked in all the time.

To be fair, Kerbeck only had ONE C7. I think there were 7 from GM.

on Saturday kerbeck had 3 dark blue, red and silver. I assume they were all on loan from GM anyway.

All the cars at the show were non sellable they have not flipped the switch yet on production sellable cars.

OK! I did my count early Friday morning. My favourite display was the rolling all aluminium chassis.
