Well the Fire Bird to me tended to be overdone on the body angles and busier than it needed to be. Lot of non function it seemed. It had that........ 'I'm a Camaro but just want to LOOK faster' ....... feel to it.

Wow. Just terrible. The interior is freaking ugly. And since when do Corvette's have a "back window?"

After seeing this and the Silverado I'm not feeling too good about the 6th gen camaros.

Could have liked, but do not
The C7 Corvette looks like an aggressively updated version of the Ferrari.

Wow. I can see there being exterior dislikes but that interior is amazing.

Yes they said if you could afford a C6 you can afford a C7.

I can't see how that's possible with all the upgrades...Right now, a base Corvette is just a hair under 50 thousand...but it's optionless. I could see an entry price of at least 58-60k for the new Stingray. So much is standard...and so much has been overhauled, like the aluminum frame, and CF roof....

The red is an option, I don't really care for that color interior, either. You can get it in all black, though...or black and aluminum, or black and carbon fiber...even some dark brown...(which, I think...together with that shadow-colored blue would looks SOOOO killer and luxurious I'd crash for staring around the inside too much! )

It's posted. Has "GM Confidential" written at the bottom but it's not like anyone pays attention to that.

*goes back to his own PDF of the order guide*

Someone correct me if I'm mistaken.
No your correct,I think its around 3350 lbs. vs a base C6 of 3225 lbs. (or a C6 GS coupe at 3330 lbs.)

You must have missed them announcing that it will have a base price near the current car. I have seen figures from $51k to $53k.
