First big box store I parked at people on one side of me kept me there for 5 minutes complimenting me on the car and color. Went inside and came out and 4 guys were standing there and had a bunch of questions for me as well. I should mention about 60 feet away there was a white C7 parked with no one around it.
On the way home pretty much every red light the driver and passengers in the other lane were posting thumbs up to me.

The C6 GS design is going to well liked for a lot of years to come

C5-C7 then a titanium plate to hold it all together. Woke up and instant pain relief on my left side. Modern medicine is great Only complaint was a sore throat for 2 weeks.

But since selling my beloved C4 and getting my GS I have been reading C6 threads like crazy and learning so much of do's and don'ts. I love and recommend the forum to all Corvette hobbyist I meet.

Even though I agree all generations a great, to include the C7. I was in the dealership admiring my new ride and sitting next to it was a C7. For me, the lines and style of the C7 just do not compare to the C6. I'm sure with time it too will grow on me, but for now a C6 GS and Z06 are just plain sexy and nasty.

Here's to hoping for a hot spring and rapped snow melt. the cabin fever is killing me and the open road is calling me.

It is all personal and subjective but I really love the C6 wide body. The Z51 C7 is a superior track car in the upper 2-3% of the performance envelope compared to the GS but let's get real here, unless you are on the track you will hardly ever be able to access that advantage. However, the stunning good looks of the GS/Z06/ZR1 are on constant display for everyone to appreciate. I'm a particular fan of the GS with its '65/'66 C2 inspired front fender vents. We took our Torch Red GS to Palm Springs this week and we turned heads and got positive comments everywhere we went. At one restaurant the valets bickered over who got to bring it up from the lot and when we parked at our hotel a guy walking his dog came up and asked if we had knew about the sinkhole disaster at the National Corvette Museum. I was washing her when we got home and someone else asked if it was a special edition of some sort. This stuff happens ALL THE TIME! The the wide body C6 has been on the streets for like seven years and people react like it is new for 2015! Is it better looking than a C7? Well, that's up to you but I stand by my view that the C6 wide body with its classic curves, powerful lines and limited "boy racer" ornamentation will be an enduring, even classic, design.

By the way, two options I didn't know I wanted but now couldn't live without:

1. Genuine white w/silver GS Heritage front fender stripes.
2. NPP Dual Mode exhaust with the foot operated Mild to Wild controller.

Both are great fun.

I don't find the C7 offensive but it just does not look like Corvette should look to me. Think I'll be keeping the GS for a while.
