Pretty much 70k how I'd want it. Maybe later.

The C7 will be the replacement for the Z

Saw the C7 at Laguna Seca this weekend while at ALMS.

First of all, props to the GT win for the Corvette team. Their 3 car was hauling ***! Love the sound of that beast.

Chevy had a booth with a few cars and of course brought the C7.
While it's a great looking car for a base model, to me it's just not aggressive enough.

I'd have to wait for a Z06 widebody version before I were to buy. But if you're in the market and you were fine with the base C6 looks, then you'll absolutely love this car. It's very mature yet mean looking. We couldn't get too close to the car, but you could still see through the window and the interior looked fantastic!!!

Can't wait to start seeing these on the street and I happily await the higher performance versions (strictly for more aggressive looks as this base car will have plenty or performance).

Matt (MC), congrats on the C7 man. Keeping the GTR-R still? whoever else getting the new C7, congrats on a fantastic machine. How does that 2nd set of rims option works? I never saw that option before your spreadsheet. I would LOVE to buy it. The pricing is very reasonable. I mean, a Nismo Z is about 40K dollars. 10K more, you're getting this beast. I think it'll be a smart decision on my part to kinda sit back and watch how this performs this year. Read up on the reviews and as someone said that I MAY be able to score invoice or invoice + $_____ next year. Also, any glitches should be taken care of by next year. I'm curious to see what Nissan has in the bag for the Z. If it's a turbo 4 cylinder or hybrid etc, Nissan will lose my money bc I'm a n/a man all the way. Those of you who are getting the Corvette C7, please make a thread here bc I want to hear your comparison vs. the Z. Anyone able to score below msrp?

The C7 at NY Auto Show

The more I look at it, the more I want it

. I'm really curious to see how it does. 57% stiffer than C6 and 50 lbs heavier than C6 with more power should be a beast of a car.

I live REALLY close to this place. Not even 3 blocks. I always see all the corvette models being driven by (test drive) potential buyer. Maybe I should stop by and see what they are offering?

BTW, what's up with the huge fender gap?

is that stock suspension or z51 or magnetic ride suspension? I would think z51 or magnetic suspension would be lower.

What is customer selectable VIN ending? And why is it $5,000!!!!!!

MC · 05-24-2013, 09:36 PM

shadoquad · 05-25-2013, 12:07 AM

That's awesome, MC.

As most of you probably know by now, I went ahead and got my used C6 Z06. I freaking love this car.

My plan is to drive her, pay her off early, and then see what higher performance trims are offered in the C7 in a few years.
