The car looks tremendous - right up to the rear fascia. That is an epic fail. I can't believe they followed through with this design. The only acceptable colors would be gray or black to hide the 2-tone stuff. It might be passable if it could be had without that stupid ducktail spoiler. Just corny and toylike. What's hilarious is that they tried to slap mid-rear engine design elements on a front-mid car. I guess that's Ed Wellburn's interpretation of european.
Anyway, I was absolutely dead wrong about the keeks leak, so there I am on record. I don't know what I'm talking about. I can never again predict design outcomes. :eek::lol: |

Looks :cool:, but I don't know about those seats.

I am disappointed with who ever is incharge of the exterior design of the 2014 Vette. Why would you break with tradition and put square tail lights on a corvette.
This is a Corvette Stingrayhttp://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...E/DSCN6798.jpg This isn't http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2013/01...max-results=20 |
I mean for a car it's not really all that bad. For a Corvette it's an absolute turd. Too many sharp lines that lead to nothing, nor do anything for styling. Maybe possible for a future Chevy truck???
I'll just call it the New C4, as in fugly and boring. :U |

Black wheels are the new trend throughout the industry. Get used to them

I'm sold! The car is no longer distinctive - it reminds me of the Nissan GTR from the behind the door. But the car is awesome anyway. Don't understand how anyone can not like the car.

Nice pics, Thanks. Not so sure about the design.

The main thing I took away from the C7 showing was that I guess GM agrees that "Corvettes are supposed to be Red" :D:thumbs:

Likes the look, VERY disappointed with 450 hp, no DSG and weight 95 pounds lighter than std C6 ????
This was no revolution and who can go forward without DSG In 2014 ? Think they lost my money :ack: **** |
at 135 lbs. lighter and 20 hp more, 50 pound foot more torque up to 4000 rpm and its still only .15 seconds quicker than my 09 z51. all this for about 4 grand more? add the z51 package 'upgraded exhaust and mag. ride, 2lt and you're dropping close to 60k, i need a second job for a 2013 z06.

I can't call my C-6 "The Sexy Bitch" anymore. From now on, she's just "Old Betsy". |

From the pictures it looks as though the trunk is a hatch back style. Doesn't look like they want to show that image. With the upswept rear styling is the convertible top going to have a good view out the back? The window may be down sized to make the roof look like it belongs.
They said initially they didn't want to ruin a good design. Subtle changes but basically the same car. Engine and interior are the focus points. Why we need more horsepower is beyond me. Can't use what they come with before. Cadillac designers invited to design meeting ? Sharp body accents is clearly their image in the past years. I hope everyone goes Ga Ga over the C-7. I want a slightly used C-6 convertible.... great functional design, less flash. |
I really disliked the initial drawings or renderings but that car looks great in real pictures and video. Didn't think I'd say it this morning but that Vette looks great and I look forward to owning and driving one in the next few years. Great job GM!!
