Chevy really made the Vette look tacky with the C7. In comparison, the C5 and C6 had great bodylines.

I think the C5 is one of the ugliest cars ever built. C6 is sweet, this C7, like others maybe itll grow on me too. Its just sooooo...gimicky looking. Tacky. Though performance wise it will burn your house down and leave you with a permanent orange afro. Effin beast. The Z looks....aaaammmmmaaaaaZZZZZiiiinnnng. I wish I got that blue on my 2013. Damnit.

All I think of when I see the Vette is the transformers movies. Im waiting for it to jump around, grow legs and arms, and then talk to me.

Are you for real? The rear is awesome.

Love the performance, and performance per dollar is even better - great cars. The looks are pretty meh though; I was expecting better.

Default Yes Vette

This is the first Corvette in a long time that has excited me, I considered a 2007 vette with the Z51 package but didn't take the necessary time to find one. I found the perfect Z with a great price back in early 2010. I will consider a 2015 vette in 2016 or 2017 as a possiblity, have some time to get there but its on my radar.

I am one of the few that thinks Chevy missed the mark with the styling on the C7........sorry but to me, and I am in the age range that mostly buys Vettes, it looks like crap. Performance is another story.
