32 for another 6 weeks. C7.
Though I'd still love to add a C6 Z06 z07 package to the stable someday with my FRC and C7.

I'm 30, and if I wanted a damn Nissan GTR I would save up and buy one. At least then I would get a sequential manual gearbox, all wheel drive, and 80 more horsepower.
Instead, Gm decided to give us a corvette that looks like a bunch of other cars crammed together, and topped it off with their take on a cheap, aftermarket, Camaro rear bumper.
I'll Stick with my C5Z until a better looking option comes out

C7 and 22. Why C7? Because it is still sharing the same general body lines as the C6 despite the eccentricities while also having a vastly superior interior and a very desirable 7-speed transmission. To me, it would be foolish to take a preference for C6 even with the loss of the bubble canopy and the slightly odd tail end on C7. It's just a better package. Now, I'd still buy a used C6!

I like the C7 even through there are some thing I don't really care for on the car. also, I do like the fact that the younger age groups do like the Vette. We all know that good for all of us here in America and our fantastic corvettes.

I voted C7 because there is no doubt on my mind that overall and base to base it looks better than the C6. However it does not look better than C6 GS, Z06, ZR1...
I'm not a huge fan of the rear design. I for one do not think it looks like a Camaro and yes you can still tell it's a corvette but it's just not good looking. There will be some after market mod that will likely make it look much better.
The front looks pretty good and much better than the C6 IMHO.

Dont get me wrong, i love my C6 to death, never trade it for the world... but that C7 looks HOT!!! I cant wait till im actually able to purchase one. Im 28 years old by the way. it's not that the car appeals to young buyers.. it simply looks awesome.

I was think of this yesterday when I watched the unveil and then stated reading all of the results. I appeared that the initial reviews that favored the C7 came from the younger generation.
I am sure that they like it more then those of us that grew up with the Corvette and have owned the different generations. I have posted on numerous sites my displeasure with it and listed these issues. I have never felt as disappointed with any generation prior to this one. Sure there were issues, but they were easy to over look after a short time.
The C7 will take a lot of work for me to see it as a true Corvette.
60's will stick to the C6

Sad day for GM
I'm 64 and have owned corvettes since 1963. The only ones I didn't like and didn't buy one were the c4's. Now the same thing with the c7. I have currently 3, 62,02,08, and was waiting to buy a c7; but that won't happen. Very disappointed.
