At first I didn't think I liked it, but now I love it. Always been a fan of Vettes. I got to see one at the Fair too and loved it. GM made a great car.
For the taillights comment, well they had to keep the Camaro taillights look somewhere in their vehicles now that all the camaros look like preludes LOL!! |

My dad is looking at ordering a c7 and the dealer is gonna be at msrp on it

Looks like the media will be able to release information on the C7ZO6 after 12am. Word on the street so far is 620hp and 650tq. Jalopnik has pics floating around of camouflaged cars with wider fenders and more aggressive tires!

LOL @ comparing a modded car to a stock car. -Alex |
Mustangs are boats compared to vettes, that is all

Those C7's sure do look great in person!

Garner, you and your dad both have sweet rides. Tell him to please remove that front plate!

http://www.edmunds.com/chevrolet/cor...ub=convertible http://www.edmunds.com/ford/mustang/...tyle=200465246 That's a 373lb difference. Also including a much lower COG, far better aero, better cornering ability, IRS, better tires, the list goes on. Guessing you haven't driven a Corvette. A stock Corvette is far more a nimble car than a Mustang with all the BMR goodies possible. -Alex |

"GM lists the base Stingray at 3,298 pounds, 90 pounds more than last years model." Automobile magazine September 2013. Also keep in mind that his Garner's car is still on stock suspension IIRC. Going from a stock Corvette to a stock Mustang absolutely feels like you're in captaining a boat. My C5 was planted at all times. Getting in the Mustang with stock tires, etc was definitely a sketchy experience especially over broken pavement. It's definitely much better now though :). -Alex |
Plate is gonna stay, he doesn't wanna get in trouble with the cops. Convincing him otherwise didn't work lol
As far as boat, chevy says a 2lt non z51 weighs 3298, ford says mine weighs 3675. But my boat comment was mainly the appearance of them. Our cars are a foot longer, and about 7 inches taller; although in my pic my car looks even taller than that. |
Thats what happens when you have a backseat. LOL

The widebody C7 does look better than the base model. |
^ I'd like to take that beast around the circuit of the americas a few laps. Looks awesome.
|
|
Its a sexy car, but its a Chevy.
|
As great as the stingray may be out to be, I had the privilege of driving the Ferrari F430 and Lamborghini Gallardo, sooooooo......... No comparison.

More on ZO6 pricing.
Straight from the man in charge, "As Tadge Juechter himself put it—in between explaining the aerodynamic value added by the tiny spats ahead of each front wheel and detailing how the C7.R’s three-percent fuel-efficiency bump (thanks to direct injection) will save one pit stop over a 24-hour race—“if you could afford the old Z06, you’ll be able to afford the new Z06.” Link: http://www.caranddriver.com/news/201...d-z-0-6-page-2 So to all those saying that the ZO6 will start at 6 figures... you can buy me lunch. -Alex |
They said the samething about the Z28. now it starts at 75k vs 56k like originally planned.

Tadge also said that if you can afford a Grand Sport, you can afford a Stingray, which was right on the money. C7 base car starts right about where a Grand Sport is priced. Go to this link and look at the used car prices: http://www.corvetteworlddallas.com/v...0Grand%20Sport. Now go to Chevrolet.com and see that the C7 starts at $51,000. Used GS with over $10k going for more than new Stingrays. I like Twisted Root btw :) -Alex |
There any options really for the Z28.
|
Eh his statement could also mean that if you trade in your current z06, you can afford the new one. Pricing will be interesting though
