Wrong Color Choice
Watching the whole introduction last nite up to the unveiling was annoying to say the least we waited far too long to see the C7
The car itself looked great but the red color with all the lights was a bit too much for center stage
Another color would have been better in my opinion

He was just sort of OK, but my wife looked at me during the show and said, "They need to dig up Jimmy Hendrix. A bag pipe player would have been preferable to this pretender."

I agree and I vote no on the black wheels.

Black wheels have been on the horizon for quite a while. They don't do anything to set off a C6 either. The C7 looks good with a silver or smoke gray wheel. I feel chrome wheels are too gaudy on this design.

The blackout headlamps, the blackout rims and the Blackout rear facia did nothing but diminish the car.
It was not until I saw the Autoweek walk around did I get the true feel and design of the car. Otherwise for me it was what is this-- SEMA.
