I usually love the way a C7 looks, but in this car that GS looks SOOO much better!

I don't if it is the camera angle, but that C7 looks so much larger than the C6.

Wow, if you have the space and $, keep both. If not, go with the C7, it's more modern and much faster. That GS is a beauty with that color, but the C7 is so now.

I have to admit the " obsolete, dated" GrandSport definitely holds its own in the looks department.

I'm just curious where all the snow in that picture went! Nice rides!

Off topic. Is there anyway I can take measurements and locations if the GS fender stripes? My wife recently saw them and thought they looked cool so she's asking me if I could put some on my Z.
