I'm a huge fan of sharp lines! My favorite vette so far. I didn't care for the c6 that much

Import enthusiasts are loving the C7. Very surprising to me.

I did not like the dark metallic one, however; the torch/victory red one kicks ***! Even some of the knuckleheads on SVTperformance really like it, though plenty in the peanut gallery threw in their 'design' 10 cents... I would really like to see one in person, but so far I like what I see.

Ext looks like a combo of cars, interior just updated c4

I would like the car a lot without the camaro tail lights.

The tach looks to be a screen, race seats look nice plus made of magnesium.
Vents to cool the transmission, 7 speed trans?? The 6th was worthless before..

Intrested to see how it responds to basic bolt ons.

I like it. I had seen some leaked photos that were damn close, but they did not do the car justice. Can't wait to hear what it drives like..

From the front it looks like it could be what the 98-02 Camaro could have turned into had it been kept around. The side is all Corvette. The rear does look like a 5th gen pig....I mean Camaro. Overall I like it though.

Thing is sweet in my opinion. Would be a hard choice between a new shelby and c7. The vette just needs a little more power.
