I think the radical design is an attempt to market to younger buyers. The perception is always that vettes are old man cars. I hope they attract younger buyers without alienating the loyal older purists. After all, it's still a fast, dirty, sexy sports/muscle car

:bowrofl: I'm probably getting red.

but that blue....very sexy.

Ha...that's funny. Is it just me or does that red have a slight pink tinge to it?

Depends on light. Red can be difficult to photograph.

+1

I want my next car to be dark blue :yum:

Its torch red, it actually has a slight orange tint to it. I prefer the victory red they used from 05-10. Torch was on the C5, they did one 2005 that color as a test run and said it didn't work for the C6, so they switched to victory, but in 2011, they went back to torch.

Not a huge fan of the rear, but will have to see it in person. it seems like a great deal and great car, though, if the interior is nice. I don't like GM in general, but this car might tempt me in the future if I can afford it, especially if they refresh/change the taillights. But we'll see what the next Z looks like as well and how it's priced.

Yeah, despite what Chevrolet unveils and how they impress, I wouldn't underestimate the Japanese when engineering + designing a new car.

I would after seeing the Q50......

I didn't like the rear in pics either, but when I saw it in the Jay Leno video it looked pretty nice.

you say that but..

all honda's = bleh
acura's = ugly
toyota's = bland
lexus's = ugly
The new Nissan's arent boring or bland, but they arent exactly striking either. So far what we have seen from Infinity is scary.

Plus the new Infiniti's have no new powerplants.. bleh.

Yeah, in person I am sure I would like it. The black Stingray on the Chevy website is crazy sexy!

You know whats awesome about Camaro SS, Corvette and 5.0 mustangs?

If you cant buy them just yet or just don't want to? You can rent them @ Hertz & Avis. On special, a corvette for a whole weekend is $550 ( $400 a day when not on special). Big savings and you can beat up the car. lol

Not bad if you're going to put some time behind the wheel. I do it a few times a year with vettes and camaros. :tup:

but aren't they all automatics?

Boo! And they are rentals. Fawked up to all hell. :icon17:
