Maybe it will grow on me, but not a fan at all. Reminds me of a camaro with a body kit.

i'm not a buyer, but i'm still hoping i like it better in person. hard to really get the full concept just from pictures. interior is curious - the long ridge of buttons is odd at best. it should be a relative bargain in the mid-engined, performance market though.

Soooo many angles and lines. May feel differently in person, but in pics it's makes the c7 look simply elegant.

I love it. As said in the other thread, absolute home run next to the abortion that was the C7

Really? I'm surprised as I know you are someone who doesn't typically appreciate overstyled vehicles with tons of unnecessary lines and creases, etc.

I've owned five Lotus Esprit (yeah, yeah, I know) and the new Corvette may well be my next car. This is how Lotus should have developed the Esprit.

As long as I don't have to divorce my wife, put on (another) 20 pounds, wear gold chains and go bald. I already have the ubiquitous white Nike tennis shoes and white socks.

Can't wait to see it in the flesh.

Love it and can't believe that it'll start around $60k. Even with options, it'll be an absolute bargain compared to the competition.

Seems like a hell of a deal for $60k, though the styling doesn't do much for me.

Having spent a good deal of time behind the wheel of a Cayman now, I'm all aboard the mid-engine train - this 'vette should be a joy to drive. Nice to see they are no longer using leaf springs too.

i think some of the photos - highlighting ALL of those creases and angles - may be hurting the presentation of design. i hope it feels more cohesive and less busy in person. it makes an aventador look absolutely smooth.
