Default 2014 z28

Just saw the headline on Yahoo today. Terrible rear lights. Since they are using the LS7 motor for this car Corvette should have a pretty good upgrade to the Stingray also.

Looks nice. I agree rear lights are horrible but since the Vette has them now I guess they had to make a change lol.

That's the best looking 10+ to date in my book. I think the rear lights look just fine. That front splitter/******* snow plow looks a little F&F, but other than that, I'm liking the car. The seats are pretty cool too.

The front looks a bit CTSV ish to me. Just the overall shape.

I don't really care for the taillights.

Overall, its not bad.

The Z28 isn't really a "contender". That would imply there is some sort of comparative/competitive performance. The price probably won't even be in the same ball park. So, the Z28 is sort of in a class of it's own. The 1LE was the competition to the Boss.

While the Boss and the Z28 are sort of built for the same purpose, the Z28 is built to perform at a much higher level than the Boss.

Default Tail lights

I think they are trying to get back to the original style.

The heat extractor is functional. It's going to be on all Camaros, not just the Z28.
