I've never "hated" on The C7 but I was dead set with my opinion about some things. I was wrong Jalopnik nailed it. I was also wrong about the details of the rear end. I may be wrong for supporting the E85 theory. But through all of that I still loved what we were hearing about the C7. I love it. I planned on waiting the Performance version (still am), but for now I'm ordering a base and will go after the performance version when it arrives. Yesterday was a great day, I officially have a new fiancé , with her fathers blessings. The Falcons somehow won their game and he new Corvette Stingray was revealed. Oh yeah the fiancé said "you should get two" after seeing the pictures of the C7

Good for you for admitting it! Too bad others are sticking to their guns even though Chevy launched an awesome car.

I too post on the Corvette Facebook site yesterday abut eating crow. I never talked to much about it here, but I did on the Facebook and expressed my displeasure with it. I also up until a few hours prior to to actually seeing it kept sawing I really think we will all be surprised when the actual C7 is rolled out.

There I sat with my mouth wide open looking at what I had seen a year earlier. Also the tail lights that we were told at the Corvette Corral by Tadge would not be on the Corvette and sure enough there they were.

So I too sit here and eat crow. That does not mean I will embrace this latest generation.

Congratulations on your engagement.

It takes a man to admit when he is wrong. Good for you!!!

Falcon's fan? Are you in ATL?

If so, I want to see that C7 when you get it!
