C7 spotted at Georgia Tech
For the GT career fair, GM brought down a C7. Folks were allowed to sit in it, start it up, take pictures and get information about working for GM.
Someone took some pictures and a video of it running, though they are changing the video right now, so I don't know if it's viewable at this moment. It should be within an hour, at the most, I'd reckon.

PS: As someone who saw it in person? It is the best looking Corvette I've ever seen.

They let me get in and start it up. It was legitimately more comfortable than any BMW or Mercedes I've ever been in. Of course, I'm looking for a seat that hugs me like a mother and feels like it could haul my fat rear end through a corner, but still. Plush and stable? So nice.

good stuff
If that is a 1lt interior that is all I need. Also, I just noticed the inner barrels of the chrome plated wheels are not chromed....this is neither good nor bad, but just an observation. It is a challenge in the plating process to do it that way, but it does save weight and money.

It is Cyber Gray, as per the GM guys.
They also stated that that IS the base interior. They said that the car is literally the lowest end you can get, save the chrome on the wheels. A lot of engineers pointed it out today :P
As for the "we run this state" dawg (dwag) fan: You can have the one sport. We'll take literally everything else.
