Is it just me, or does the C7 tail lights look like the Camaro?

AAAAAACK!!! Just kidding - don't shoot!

But seriously, sounds like a good show. We see the International Auto Show in Raleigh when it comes to town. Cool to be able to sit in the driver's seat of nearly every car (except for the Corvette, for whatever reason) without salespersons jumping out at you. They're there to answer questions if you approach them, otherwise it's a great way to see firsthand if a car's right for you.

Thanks for sharing.

The C7 is super-cool in both coupe and convertible forms.

The Camaro is okay.

The Veyron, what can I say......I'll take mine in red and silver!

The Viper is even uglier than it was.....if that's possible.

Porche's have always been ugly, and this one is no exception.

Maybe the Ferrari looks better in the flesh?

The Corvette really stands out in that crowd.

Thanks for posting

Very nice, Thanks for sharing.
I don't know if the older I get my tastes change, But I sure am not liking the Viper at all.
Now the C7 and the Z28, If I only had an unlimited supply of money...

I think the car is beautiful and well designed.

I am with you Mr.Bill; the current viper design is not working for me.


Since I walked out of the show with all over me and dreaming of ways to make my pockets deeper, I stopped and bought a power ball ticket. Gotta do what cha gotta do

The C7 looks great, inside and out.

The Camaro looks great too. I like it even better now.

The Veyron is ugly and so are the Porches, always been imo.

The Viper looks dated. Ferrari looks good.

The C7 is very cool but imo the C5 is still the best looking generation.

Great picture, thanks.

The rear end of the C7 looks like it was designed by an old Pontiac designer.

Nobody mentioned the Mclarens? Best car in that line up if you ask me. Followed very closely by the 458, and then that "ugly" Porsche GT3 (the white one). Those are only ones I'd buy. I can't stand the new Camaro or Corvette personally.
