I kinda like it. The tail lights do make me think of a Camaro, but overall I like the exterior. I still expect the interior to suck ass, but it wouldn't be a Corvette without a shitty interior

Looks great, specs good, interior seems to be much better than before (It couldn't only go up). Hope it performs as good as it looks. I like it.

Side profile reminds me of the 599 and I'm not feeling the exhaust and the hood vent, in person this cars going to be quite the looker especially in black.

Can't wait for the ZR1/Z06. I don't usually like the base vette but this one is pretty good from the back at least.

Looks amazing in red with black wheels. Not sure if I'm completely sold on the ultra-sculpted look in comparison to the Viper though.

What makes the Corvette a stingray? Just curious. I'm missing a bit of history here.

The Stingray started out as a racing car project designed for the 24hr LeMans race.
