WARNING: Don't buy a Torch Red C7.....
....unless you REALLY want attention. I've had this thing for a little under 3 months now and I've never seen people go as crazy over a car as they do for my new C7. I've had a lot of nice luxury and sports cars over the years(including an AMG SL55 convertible and 6 Corvettes), but none of them have ever caused people to hang out of other cars taking pictures and I've had more people complimenting it at stop lights than all my other cars combined. Just yesterday I had a guy on a chopper who looked like an extra on Sons of Anarchy pull up next to me and give me a big smile only to reveal he only had about half his teeth.
And now for the obligatory photo(taken after a fresh coat of Pinnacle Souveran):

That is a great looking Vette. Torch Red is a great color.

You are correct. I had a mother and her kids yelling at me while we were stopped at a light tonight. Then on the way home I had two guys doing the same thing. Crazy!!

Yeah, I had a middle aged lady in a minivan a couple nights ago pull up next to me at a light and say "sweet car". Never had that happen before.

People love this car.
I dont even own a C7 yet (still have a C6) and every time I drive it, someone asks me when am I going to trade it for the new one. A neighbor I've never met before, literally ran out his house to stop me and ask me some questions about the new C7.
I have NEVER seen so many people this excited about a Vette.

I'm even getting a load of attention in my white vert. Whoever thought of white as an exciting color? I came out of the store today to see two guys in a Camaro circling my C7 in the parking lot, going round, and round, and round and....

I kinda know what you mean
I've got a fabricator working on a bracket and mount to hold a flag for me. The top photo is using a prototype. Hopefully a finished model will be ready for an 'Old Soldiers' parade this Saturday.

Your C7 looks great, but it's not only a TR car that gets the looks. Doesn't matter the color - I look at all the C7s going by.
