There isn't but three things I disliked about the C7... 1) I can't afford one,2)the taillights and 3) the rear fascia. The tail lights I can live with, but that fascia/license plate surround/ whatever you call it would have to be body colored for me to remotely like it. I'm not crazy about the vents immediately behind the doors, in the upper rear fender...what exactly are they for?

The C6, I've loved since day one. If I wasn't such a broke arse I'd buy one.

I heard the annointed one is going to buy all the welfare rats a C7 as long as they can prove they're a third generation hood rat, have a rap sheet a minimum a mile long, and do drugs at least 7 times a week.
They need a reward, it's hard work sitting in those roach infested apartments and shooting up all night and sleeping all day, while not bathing for a week.

This years Lone Star Corvette Classic show was another good time. A group of us were treated to breakfast at a local GM dealership and we parked our cars under their covered parking area.



One of the best things was the Friday night escorted cruise to dinner.
the local LEO's stopped traffic all the way to our destination about 25 miles away. There were about 150 vettes, more than enough to lap the Texas Motor Speedway 1.5 mile track as they lined us up to head out. Here we are staged.



But, this is the reason for posting in Petes thread.

The car was trailered in on a Reliable truck and they flew a guy in just to unload it and drive it to the 2 sites to be shown during the 3 day show. What a job.

I love that interior...even the brown color. Kinda sorta reminds me of the King Ranch Ford leather. I think I'd like the car better in Blue, Black, or Yellow... but I wouldn't kick that green out of my garage either.

Duke, if you're not fond of cavity searches, I'd steer clear of Arkansas for awhile.....

Same here, for about 5 minutes I was on the bandwagon about the tail lights but I got over that pretty quick. I would have one in a second if I could afford it. And the green was rockin.

I still have mix feeling about the tail lights. The day I saw it I no longer care about it.

The funny thing is the the 2014 Camaro no longer have "Camaro tail lights"

I think this is one BAD ASS rear end.
