..........and this from a guy with the screen name of Mustang 1999?

I feel good when I look at my C5 and I see a Corvette. To me my Corvette is a 5 star resturant and its a C5. If I looked at my car and see a Ferrari or NSX then I am fooling myself. I should be able to look at a car with the name Corvette and see a Corvette. With the C7 I don't.

Everybody is posting up pics and saying it looks like this Ferrari or that Lambo or a Camaro from behind. We should be saying is dude it looks like a Corvette for sure, but we are not.. I didnt settle for a C5 or C4 because I couldnt afford a Ferrari I decided I wanted a car that looked nothing like a Ferrari. The Corvette is my dream car, not a Ferrari. Thats why I am angry at the way it looks. Hell the front looks almost identical to a Lotus as well.
Hmm, no offense but I can tell it is a Corvette from any angle. Guess I am just more of a Corvette/car guy than you and your daughter.

Don't own a mustang. Was just trying to think of a car name that others on this forum did not already have so I could sign up without seeing "this name is already taken" e.t.c.

If you don't like what they say then why attack them? I guess we should all follow like lemmings and think the same way that you and everyone else who likes the new C7 does.

Time for you and all the others that are causing the drama to grow up and shut up.
Nice 2nd post join date 1/16/2013 (or are you a regular member with a different name)Take aim somewhere else. Find one place where I have caused drama or attacked anyone? And if you don't like what I say why are you voicing it? Follow your own advice.....I don't disrespect anyone here..so don't disrespect me. But I guess anyone can be behind a screen and type "shut up" to another individual without any repercussion...enjoy the C7 and your forum experience.

Hogwash.

OK, I understand. That's kinda sorta like how I ended up with my screen name, 'tho I do have a Harley - 2000 FXDWG. Not sure if the Tux still fits; haven't worn it in years. It did when I signed up back in 2004, 'tho. Will admit to having a Mustang too - a '67 GT FB, parked right next to the "67 vette. "67 was my HS grad year, so am enjoying it all over again, so to speak.
