Wasn't The Transformers Sting Ray Concept Supposed To Be A Design Direction For C7?

I was PRAYING that the Transformer car was NOT the C7. While a great "movie/concept" car, it is a very overblown design, as befitting it's purpose in life (to be a show/concept car).
And Jet....go drive a Viper before you buy one! They are not for everyone (understatement of the year).

I don't go over to the Rustang or Viper forums to whine about a car I don't like.

....oh wait that's right it's the Dart.
IMO both the Viper and Dart have good looking interior from the pictures. They do share many characteristics just like the Camaro and Corvette will. If it's not broke....

in a word...NO. It never was meant to be the C7. Like all wild and crazy concept cars, it is just meant to see what people like and dont like. If one or two little details carried over to the C7, it was a success.
we get it...you dont like the C7. no one cares. your comments won't change anything. please return to the C6 and Viper discussion boards.

The similarity to a would appear to be largely coincidental.

16 Vettes and counting…..
Yes, me. OP has been here for over 2 years and has a thread/post history. I checked some of the ones from when he joined and they are reasonable. OP seems to just have strongly held, unpopular, and poorly expressed opinions regarding the C7 (at least what we've seen of it), does not defend his positions effectively, and tends to lead with his chin.

The use of the new Camaro in the first Transformers movie set a bad precedent in that the expectation that the Corvette would follow suit was assumed.
I agree with others that things are learned from design studies that we will never know. Look at CERVI and CERVII as an example. I am sure technology came from those studies, but no cosmetic similarities jump out at me.
As for the OP, I suppose I could start 50 seperate threads expressing my dislike for asparagus, but I really believe one would get the point across.
Trolls gotta troll and pot stirrers gotta stir.

Make no mistake about it, the new C7 ZR1 or what ever it will be will infact be a Viper killer. I'd bet that the new C7 Z06 will beat it as well on the track, at the gas pump, technology wise, looks and especially quality. So get used to that image I put up. It's what you will have to get used to when you pull up next to a cost comparable C7.
That said, enjoy your Viper fantasy and 20 Vette history. It's clearly time for you to enjoy your new buddies on the Dodge forum and run along! Take your Snake and go spank it elsewhere! The Corvette community will be much better off without you!

Stop rewarding troll behavior.
Yes, spending the week finding every possible way in which to say the same thing is troll behavior. Doing it with a new thread every time is doubly trollish.
