What a Beautiful car!! Chevrolet has really done a great job with this car. I love everything about it. The rear of the car looks fantastic. We have another generation of Great Corvettes.

I just saw it on tv this morning. The pictures do it no justice. The lines on the hood are awesome. The car has a whole new look.

Car looks great. I like the looks but sure wish GM had stepped up the power a little more than 450 hp. If Ford can extract 440 hp from a 5.0 then surely GM could do a little better than 10 hp more with a 6.2 engine.

It's going to have active fuel management (cylinder deactivation.) There's one major mistake right off the bat.

I've watched every video so far. I love how they thought about the design and the history of the designs and decided to shake it up. It needed a fresh look and once people realize that and see it on the streets I think opinions will change. I mean hell look at this p/s with hre wheels on it. People are harping on the rear too much because of the lights. It needed to be changed and this is a good change.
