Default Car and Driver c7 corvette

Believe me i have been sick of hearing and seeing the bullshit about the new corvette, but i finally starting paying a little attention when i saw it in my new issue of car and driver...Looks like the 5.5 liter for sure(could be way worse) so not too bad...Honestly i kind of think it looks like ****, hopefully it will grow on me if this is what it turns out to look like...But what do you guys think about it so far???? My interest is the 2013 Dodge viper@700 horsepower starting at 95,000 BRAND NEW....And believe me i am a vette guy through and through........Just wanted to hear you thoughts....

there are no images of what it will really look like, it's all crappy concept art made by crappy artists.

I didn't read the article,..based on the fact that these fuckface douchebag magazines all favor some sort of import vehicle over an american vehicle.....every single time. Over it,...they don't support my general public, **** them, I don't support them.

That said...

considering we made 787rwhp on a stock 5.7 liter bottom end,...i'm not at all against a small cub'd LSX monster. Stuff some boost down it's throat,..

I get to track my buddies Gen IV 600WRHP viper and they just don't compare to the Corvette feel on EDGE... Steering and chassis are dull...

Is the new 2013 viper on the SLS frame? OR was that another roomer?

When the C6 came out, I hated it! Then when the Z06 came, I was like, one day I will buy one!!!

Your right, the C7 will grow on you as we shift into the next era...

and for 95,000k, I would have stretched for a Superleggera, used of course!

Oh and Jaime - you eat **** for breakfast
