C7 spied..

[DJ_Critterus]

Maybe a used Z06 is looking better and better.....

[Bucwheat]

Man what a let down.

[DJ_Critterus]

I was hoping for some drastic body changes.

I'm hoping for more power from the base engine, a 7 or 8 speed sequential transmission. Better suspension-maybe coilovers, and NO MORE FAT MAN SEATS.

That would be nice if it had true paddle shifters, too. I could talk Chapsaltuck into something new if it doesn't come with a clutch.

Have you taken a good look at most of the people who buy this car? GM knows their customer base.

Make it an option

I think the lights are square. The shape you see is the cut out of the fabric of the cover. I also see the blind spot warning crap on the mirrors.

I am thinking my C6z is going to be the last corvette I own. Might get a bumper car or a mid year, but I have absolute ZERO intrest if it is anything like the "spy renderings".

The new 911S is looking better and better.

I dunno; looks like round lights behind round cutouts:




I was hoping that with Dave Allante Hill (Mr. "Design by Committee") gone, the C7 would go back to more radical supercar appearance.

[DJ_Critterus]

Wow, I'm severly dissapointed. Looks like I'll save some cash and find a used GS or better in a couple of years.

I don't like the way the paint is peeling.
GM is cutting too many corners.

[AU Eagle]

I'll wait for the official GM pictures before I pass judgement...

[spoonhead76]

Are those just flaps in the tarp or is there some kind of fiberglass above the quarter panel. Looks like a new rear window design.

Note that we are looking at two different cars here. To pick them apart, look at the bottom center of the rear bumper. One has a pronounced "thumbprint" right above the tail pipes, which are different between the cars as well.

Looks good, I hope they add fabric as an exterior option instead of that stupid shiny paint.

Pipes are different as well.

I doubt square lights would have a round ring of LEDs in them.

Spacing on the tail lights is kinda wide... I don't think we're seeing the entire light, just the centers...
