Last weekend, Monterey, CA.

Sin City

Do the "wine and cheesers" up there like the car?

I think this car goes better with a Bud.

Those chrome wheels are such an eye sore

Any close-up pictures of the rear fascia on the Torch Red?

Blancpain

makes the car look cheap IMHO.

Torch Red, Yellow, Cyber Gray and NRB look like crap with chrome wheels.


The others aren't too bad.


Nobody should be spending $2K for the chrome option when that much $ can get you some nice custom wheels.

To each his own. Chrome looks good with some colors (Arctic White) and so-so with others. IMHO.

The photo of the Red Vette is Awesome!!

Thanks for sharing it

Typical Monterey visitor. Not really your Corvette kinda guy. Probably drives a Volvo.

The TR Corvette is stunning. The Blue is awesome too. I like the chrome rims but as stated previously, I would spend that money on a unique set of custom wheels. My last Corvette had the competition grey rims and they really didn't show any break dust, especially after I changed the brake pads to ceramic pads by Hawk.
The C7 really looks good in the matching color top compared to the C6. On my C6 cars I preferred the dark glass top.

Nice clear pictures, thanks dude.
Fuze,

We were looking at getting the c7 to replace the c5 but the GF says the rear looks like a transformer. I never liked the rear but didn't agree with that until I saw the close up at the back of the blue one there. My local forum vendor dealer said he'll have one for me in August but I assume that's being pushed back. The more pics I see the less I like it . I've been waiting 12 years now for a vette I'd like and I'm still going to be waiting it appears

The red looks great in this picture!!

In real life does it look a little orangee?

It's Torch Red... the exact same color that came on C5s 1997-2004 and on C6s 2010+ (or whenever they ditched Victory Red and brought Torch back).

It is a shame that you feel that way. I remember when I first saw the ugly headlights on the C6. I really hated them. Now when I see one I am far more tolerant of the design..

You've obviously visited that area before because you nailed it exactly!
I have family in Santa Rosa that work in the wine industry and I have personally witnessed "those people" as in your video. It's a good thing that area also has a booming micro-brewery business to keep us regular guys happy.

Don't about other parts of the country, but chrome rims went out of style a long, long time ago in SoCal for all ages.

I, too, was skeptical about the rear end until I saw a C7 in real life. I also saw it next to a ZR1 and I can tell you that the C6 rear is definitely looking dated after seeing the C7. Now it is growing on me.

After saying that, I am sure there are still some out there that think the C6 ugly for having exposed headlights!
