I have a 2017 Grandsport Vert. I will give you some of my thoughts. None of the previous Corvette's have ever impressed me. The C7 is really good. The biggest difference is the turn in. The front end hooks and just turns. It is really good. The backend can get loose on you. The nannies work good too. Not too intrusive, just about right. You have some adjustment using different modes. When I drove my C7 it reminded me of how the 370z drives. You can push it if you have the skills. Long trips are not that fun. I drive without cruise control most of the time and the throttle pedal is just too stiff. That annoys me to death. I have to set the cruise on long trips. The seating position leaves some to be desired. You sit up too high. It feels like you are riding on top of the car, not in it. You have less room in a C7 than you do a 370z. The cockpit is small and tight. I am 5ft 9in. It doesn't hinder me much but it does get on my nerve. If you are a larger person, this can be a problem. Hope this helps.
