Default Let's see more base model pictures

Seems most posted pictures are of Z51's. How about some base models with standard wheels. Does anyone know if base wheel will be changed for 2015. Know there will be more options, but will the base one change? Thanks.

There are tons of pics of every kind, color and mix of options imaginable in the various color-specific threads.

Since the Z51 is an option package, not a model, every C7 is a "base" model anyway, just with different option packages and in coupe or vert configuration.

I like to see the options as a'la carte in the future as well as grouped in a package like the Z51. I like the looks of the 'base' or non Z51 with the duck-tail and standard rims but would have liked to have had the magnetic ride. The rims I would have liked where the Torque Wheels, this would also be a nice option without having to buy as an entire extra set.

Everything you want or need to know about the C7's option packages is on the Chevrolet web page.

I went with Aftermarket for my base AW 'vert (I just did not like the base wheels). I have a brand new set of TSWs in my garage waiting to be installed...

I was not overly thrilled with the base wheel until I got the car. I discovered amazingly the wheel is really high end. The spokes protrude slightly and the hub is sculptured amoung the lug nuts. Not shabby. Pictures don't do them justice.

Mine does not have the Z51 option.



I really like the car. But cant wait to get the Z06

I have put over 950 miles on the car in the last three days, headed back from Bowling Green to Omaha tomorrow for another 750+ miles.

Not many photos exactly like mine... body color top, red calipers, Z51 spoiler, silver painted wheels.



Could not resist moving Hurst shifter from my C5 Z06.



Painted wheels

Your car is exactly what mine looked like when I bought it. I also have the red painted top too. Although I have the transparent top on the car right now.
