Re: C7 "Car and Driver" Jan 13 issue
Agree with several of you. It looks like a Camaro and I don't personally like that look. We need the big round trademark tailights to distinguish the Corvette. But I will reserve final judgement until I see one in person. --Bob

Re: C7 "Car and Driver" Jan 13 issue
Personally, I think the whole car looks hideous. I can't find one thing about the styling that I like.

I knew she was going to look like a 599. Now just get rid of those Damm ugly tail lamps.

I was thinking that there was a menage a trois between a 458 & a 599 GTO, and a ZL1 ( purely for genetic reasons ) Camaro ..... I'd like it even more if it had a real DOHC/4V motor to go with that "European" look.....the tail lights, eh not so much, but I'd take them if they were attached to a 4 cam V8. Does anybody think that when each new gen vette is introduced some people at GM just wish that all us BOB's would take our cars and disappear? Tom
