Very cool video, I thought it was a 7 speed and BTW Jay, the Z06 is 505/470 - NOT 450/450
I pretty much want one... |
Look's fantastic! Makes my 010 Z look a little outdated..

Ed the "designer" said you can get yellow interior @ 7:52
:lol: |

At 4:00 I got bored and closed the video...then I read a response to the sound of the exhaust and went back. Seriously? I couldn't hear crap when it was started with the cameraman at the driver side door.
And what's with everyone being on Jay Leno's dxxk? I am sure there are plenty of "car guys" out there that can speak a little more intelligently. The C7 release video had so much more appeal than this boring clip. Would have been nice, with a camera in the C7, to get his impressions of the car while driving it. |

When I first saw this red on black c7, I told myself how ugly it is. Now when I see this red on black c7, I told myself how god damn sexy it is
That's probably why Jay didn't seem to be thrilled, when Ed was showing him the C7. |

I'm convinced Ed knows nothing about Corvettes.

He really comes off like this doesn't he? Is this the guy supposedly "responsible" for the C7?? Seems more like someone quickly filled in on bits and pieces at the last minute, and he gets them all mixed up.
When you watch Tadge you can tell he knows every square inch of the Corvette, Ed, not so much..:crazy: |

:lol: That would actually be a cool option. |
At 1:27 look at how cloudy the paint is around the Stingray emblem, looks terrible! Also what's up with the Nascar type spoiler, way too tall IMO! This is the most upclose video I've seen and I like it even less now! Sorry don't get all upset but I still don't get the excitement over the car! I loved when he was talking weight, isn't the car no lighter than it was? And I know Jay is not a small guy but he's not huge either and he looked crammed in the drivers seat!

Right, Jay was thinking that the dash trim matches the body color, so if you get a yellow car, you get yellow trim.
That would actually be a cool option. |
Thanks for posting! The best video I've seen on the C7. One of the first in depth looks at the interior and instrument cluster. The more I see the C7 the more I like it.

Here is a video link of Jay and his Corvette as an example. Note Jays comments in the Vid ! http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/...te-z06/526277/ Jay said the C7 was "revolutionary", ...."...a really exciting car." and... "beautiful".......and thats without even getting to really drive it. He also said it looks like a 200K or 300K car. Pretty good review in my book from the car guy :thumbs: |
Nice to have a real car guy like Leno talk about it.
That car just melts me. My gosh! As my 12 year old said to his twin brother when we watched the unveiling online, "dang, you can have Lamborghini, that's awesome!!!" |
A. Leno clearly wanted to have it on his show.
B. Leno clearly likes the Corvette brand and owns a number of them. C. Leno clearly really liked the 2014 Stingray specifically enough to gush about it. D. Leno clearly stated he wanted to drive it. E. Ed is the head of Design, not the C7 Head of Marketing or the C7 Chief Engineer. I can forgive him for having some lapses of knowledge, especially since a lot of what will be final as far as models/options may still be in flux. We don't even know when this video was shot... |

In the context of Jay's comment I took it as a very good thing...and I agree...as he states that what he finds exciting is that any little picture you take of it, you'd guess European...$200,000 - $300,000...Ferrari, Lamborghini...in that category.
Great video...love it!!! |
Just viewing C-7 by these pics it looks like RED is the color clearly for this Corvette generation.

Good video

Okay, so I love the way the brake lights light up. I guess the centers are for turn signals and reverse lights, both of which I approve of. I never liked having brake lights, tail lights, and turn signals in one. Did anyone else notice that the hatch is even shaped like a Stingray when open? |

I'm pretty sure it was shot when the car was in AZ for B-J. Leno said they were in Scottsdale.
