From the C7 site and that video:
this is approxmately how the lower panels on the red and blue would look in body color. Sorry for the bad photoshop, but the originals were such low res, makes it very difficult. - If the bottom is plastic, and it has a functional purpose, like chip protection, then I can accept that it is black. I'd be annoyed that there is so much plastic, but I could accept that it is black. If it is a painted panel, then I think it looks 1000x better when it is painted body color. To have a painted black panel there, with no functional or economic purpose, is just a questionable design decision. It's just too busy. Keep it simple. :rolleyes: |

This will happen. It just looks too good for GM to not offer this option. Maybe not in 2014, but in later years. Perhaps when the high HP model arrives.

Looks much better in the same color as the rest of the car. If GM doesn't offer it, I'll paint mine immediately.

First year cars in the Corvette family have always out sold the last year of the past generation with the exception of the C5. With all the negative comments on the C4, it sold twice as many in its first year compared to the final year of the C4. We don't know what the C6 2013 MY numbers will be exactly, but the C7 may be able to out do it, but then again the C5 numbers were way down in the first year. That may have been due to the lack of the convertible which is the same plan for the C7 from what I have heard. Although, it does not matter to me, because I will not be out there placing my order anytime some on one. |
Hahahaha Oh well. Motor Trend will be scratching their heads. Hahahahaha

I think we just need to wait a year or two and see. I am not sure how it will sell right now. Sure there is all the hype seeing it is so different, but just how many will run out and buy one still remains to be seen.

It seems to be what's keeping us on the fence. |

Ehh to be honest I like the black bottom, I have a TR C5 and thought hard about maybe painting it or plasti dipping it to see what it's like. I like it for some reason and it gives it a more diverse look but it's handsome either way haha
