No. I've already got 436 HP so I don't think 3.2% more horsepower amounts to a tinkers damn, especially if I have to drive a car whose rear end looks like a cartoon Camaro, and that has an instument panel that looks like a 1950's pin ball machine. But hey, if you like it go for it. 
But on that note I will keep my C6!

Just for you folks....Pretty sure I know which cars are the Corvette's and which one is the Camaro...
Hmm, those "C7" tail lights look pretty bad *** on a c6

The LT1 (that's the 5th gen V8 in the C7) will, at times, operate as a 3.1L 4 cylinder engine. You guys crack me up when you drag out stuff from the early 1980's as proof of what WON'T work in 2013. And to finish it off, you still get it wrong (the LT1 will NOT operate as a 6 cylinder engine).

I know what you mean. But as a guy who owned a 1981 Cadillac Eldo (Remember the one that got blown up at the beginning of Casino?)
with the 4-6-8 engine, I understand the fear. It was a terriible engine, possibly the worse gas mileage I've ever experienced in any car I've owned.
Still, I'm pretty confident the LT1 won't even be close to the crappy performance of that sh*tty engine.
