I considered a C7, but got a C6 Z06. C7's still haven't grown on me

It's like they borrowed the Scion design team to finish the back end. Every time I pass one on the interstate I just think WTF were they thinking?

I was riding with my wife in our C6 when we two-lane passed a C7. She asked me what kind of car was it that we passed. I said it was the current model Corvette. She said, "They sure uglified our car to make that."
I felt even better about my decision then.
As to the design team, they were idle since they did the Aztek.

I'm with everybody else so far. The Wide C6 just looks better to me.
C7 is a little too edgy for me...foreign car looking.
Great choice.

Nice, I pretty much thought the same thing. Just not worth about $40k more.

Great choice!! Beautiful car. C7 could go down as the ugliest version ever. I am a C6 owner for life.
