nicely done!
this forum is a serious joke most of the time...reminds me of when I come up on a conversation with my high school aged daughter and her new weekly BFF...superficial and shallow most of the time. Glad some others are tired of it too!

Ha very entertaining thread. Without reading all the replies I would like to contribute:
1. Stingray has a pushrod engine and since most people do not even know what this means, it must be an inferior engine design.
2. Stingray still uses leaf springs, and the fact that it is a transverse leaf spring that doubles as a sway bar and saves weight does not deter to the fact that: it must be inferior since it uses "leaf springs"
3. The navi is very slow to respond to the touch so it must be outdated
4. Body fitment is off by .5mm between panels so all stingrays must have horribly fitting body panels.
5. There is no nurburgring official time so it must be slow.
But the best one I read so far was that the owner's wife complained the passenger side had no leg room. Alas! the stingray must not have good leg room even though members at 6' say they fit in the car just fine. oh dear...

LOL! That is hilarious....how true. Unfortunately, welcome to the internet where all the unhappy people get to pour their negativity on the rest of us.
I have ~800 miles on mine now (took delivery last Thursday) and absolutely love this car. I told my girlfriend, and was completely honest, that if the car didn't live up to all my expectations I planned to sell it right away. Well, this car has found a permanent home in my garage and I hope to have years & miles of enjoyment with it It's just as fun as my S2000 and just as fast as my Evo...best of both worlds if you ask me.

C7 of Year Finalist (appearance mods) 2019
I hate my C7 Z51 coupe soo much that I had to buy a C7 Z51 convertible to be just damn sure that I hated both/either types of new C7s too...BTW...buying the 2nd one didn't change my mind. Give me a couple of years to change my mind but maybe not.....The original "hater on the post" must know something that I and my wife do not know....but we will both continue driving our "hated cars" even if everyone we know says keep driving both cars!

there is no requirement that you have to own something, or even know anything about it, before you gripe about it. if that were the case, there would be very few words spoken here, or anywhere else.

Yeah and you didn't say anything about the missing warning light to alert you when your bag falls off the top! Bummer!
