I love the vettes, but i must say this one is the worst in design yet, too comic book liking for me, early seventies had a style about them and class and the stingray was amazing, this last one is no stingray,,, Sorry chev
-

I LOVE MY 2015 CORVETTE STINGRAY LUGANI BLUE IT IS A REAL HEAD TURNER C7 DEVEL MCLEAN

Well I own a c7 at 26 so I guess you'll have to add "you can most definitely sell a young man's car to a young man...if he is willing to work his ass off to pay for it."

I have the Blue color shown. The Stingray is AWSOME
-
if any automaker builds an iconic affordable super car it should become a requirement that the exotic should have specified build quantity not exceeding towards that of "bloated quantity build" & criteria per say the powertrain should be that of *hand built specific build implementation rather than mass producing using assembly robots for entire build to ensure consistent levels of quality in build & craft.
Its another use & application of of hallmark of excellance attributed to even an affordable super car -

I love this car I will have one

At 6:40 the host says 17.2 Corvettes roll off the assembly line per day. That sounds too low. He probably meant 17.2 per hour. That would be about 35,000 Corvettes a year.
-
I love the new tail light design.
-
Do I now need to worry about the transmission on my C5 overheating because there is no cooling fan?

One thing that stuck out to me was the paint! In the video of the older cars, the paint looked pristine! The paint on all the C7's in the video were all orange peeled. Do they really come from the factory like that?

Thats one expensive bailed out GM trash.
-
I sold my 2010 Shelby and bought a C7, by far the best corvette to date, it won me over. Too bad it is stuck in that stop sale mess and GM has no information for new owners as to when they will get the air bag component or module together, frustrating, hopefully I will get to drive it before winter storage season....
-
Even though i never liked red it looks good on that last segment. Very bad-to-the-bone look.
-
only weakness in c7, its electronic handbrake.

5:00 if anybody is interested it`s in russian and says "And do You believe?"
