The new c7 vette with a new 5.5.liter motor.
The new c7 with a 5.5 liter motor.. with 436 hp. i think it kind of looks like a cross between a camro and a cts cadalic its being built to draw the european buyers as well as a younger american...i think if they want to sell this car they better bring back electron blue! what do u think? well maybe if u look at it long enough u will start to like it..

I bet that there will be more changes to it before the final version of thr C7 rolls off the line. They are not due from what I read until 2013.

that will change A LOT in the next 4 years. i'm hearing 2014 for the C7 and most of those hard lines will be knocked down by then. has anyone seen the design drawings for the C5? they looked as wild as this but didn't end up like it.

I'm sure this will get moved to the C7 section, however similar to the C5, C6 and now the C7, the auto mags are getting bored and photochopping in order to move product.
The new Transformers Sideswipe Stingray convertible will be in the next movie, so that will add more speculation considering how close Bumble Bee matched the current Camaro.
I expect the design trend to continue with sharper corners, etc. That's why I don't plan to ever sell my beautiful C5 vert. I may add a future Z06 or high performance coupe/hardtop, but the C5 vert IMO will be hard to beat IMO from a sleek, design perspective.

I'm kinda partial to the C6 but I'll have to stick with my C5 for now. This C7 is just plain butt ugly! I'll never be in the market for one so I really don't care how they turn out, but, WOW, ugly, ugly, ugly!

Lots will change in design....so we shouldn't judge the C7 until we see it....even the C6 was not liked by many at first, but it's shape was ahead of it's time and now more and more C5 guys are switching to C6's.

How many posts like this will be made in the next three years? When they have pictures of them leaking from the test track then I will believe them. Ever see the concept cars from the early 90s? They look nothing like a C5.

Really no way to tell if that is true or not...unless the forum admins do a poll of how many of us decided to stay with our C5s, and how many of the C6 owners used to own a C5...heck, maybe you could do the poll!
