I like the Z06 wheels on the Ferrari - they look more Corvette than the wheels on the C7.

Yep, very similar lines/design...really feel like GM lost the individuality of the Vette.

I'm waiting for Top Gear to do a C7 vs Ferrari comparison like they did with the C6, and again say the Corvette's the better choice.

They are very similar looking cars. The C7 is growing on me the more I look at it. I think that GM was really trying to appeal to more of the overseas market this time around. Styling aside the heart and sole(LT Engine) is pure American.

Because they didn't use the word "replica"?
