Meanwhile, back to the original question.
Yes, I think the C7 will receive a facelift. As for a HP increase, depends on the CAFE situation and how will an LT1 replacement meet the current MPG requirements. However, if the CAFE won't be affected, yes I think an HP increase is in order. That 500HP mark has to be tempting to the Corvette marketeers. Here's something else to consider. Will the three month shutdown, permit revisions to the C7 to allow the A10 to be introduced to replace the A8. Something to think about. :flag: http://www.corvetteonline.com/news/v...pers-are-made/ |

I can't think of a single reason to want a ten speed automatic. The darn thing will be shifting all the time actually hindering performance. If the transmission is in tenth gear and the demand now requires first, the transmission has to dump nine gears to get into first. We will see!

Since the C5 generation, GM has done very little in terms of cosmetic changes. Instead, they have chosen to release new models within that generation. To many, the other changes like wheels, paint color, etc. are specific to years but to non Corvette fan boys, you really can't tell the difference between a like-for-like model 1997 C5 and a 2004 C5 or a 2005 C6 and a 2013 C6.
I think that's what's going to happen with the C7 as well. All improvements are subtle and model year specific, i.e. front end cameras, SS start button, touch close rear hatch, etc. |
