Default Velocity Yellow Convt-40 Photos

Was looking at inventory at Rogers Corvette Center tonight and stumbled across this photo file of a beautiful Velocity Yellow/Black C7 Convt. Looks like Tom and Liz are enjoying some driving time in FL. Awesome!

Car looks great. I am not a convertible guy, this car looks really sharp as one.

I'm a convertible guy, but I think the C7 vert doesn't have quite the "pop" that the coupe does. I find it odd that I even have that opinion since I usually prefer a roadster over a coupe.

Does anyone notice anything off in pic 22 where the front fascia meets the fender?

It's hard to argue with that but with black headlights, a yellow C6 looks almost as good from the front. Maybe that led to the design progression to the C7's headlights.

I wish they would have incorporated the Vents on the 'vert - The Topside Vents just let you know this car is all business. (yes, I know they are on the underside)

Can't disagree with you there... that yellow C6 also looks with the shaded headlamp surrounds. The C6 still has the svelte shape too, I still admire C6's everytime I see one on the road... and then I realize oh krap I'm in my new C7 so the admiration (hopefully) or a simple wassup! is reciprocated.
