Saw this the other day, both nice looking cars. The C7 sounds pretty good for a stock exhaust and pulls nicely

So a LS2 C6 that was rated at 400hp versus a C7 that is rated at 460hp and is lighter.

Looks like the outcome I would have expected.

C7= 3,444 curb WIKI
C7 w/o Z51= 3,298 curb, GMAuthority website
2005 C6 Base= 3,245 curb, Corvette Museum
2013 C6 Base= 3,208 curb, GMAuthority website
Not sure who is exact, many articles state C7 is heavier by 90 pounds

A few trips to Taco Bell could negate the weight factor,,,
