stingray script?
So the stingray emblem is on the side. Is the word Stingray written in script anywhere on the car or did I miss that?

I guess "Sting Ray" is now an icon. That fits when looking at a younger market. Everything is shortened up or just given an icon..there you go. LOL...

Nope, but it does say Corvette Stingray on the inside under the ashtray.

it's Stingray, one word now. It would have been nice if Chevy could keep it one way, always.

There's a dash plaque under the HVAC controls. That's the only place I've seen it.

ok good, I thought I missed it. every morning, I open the corvette forum now to see new pics and vids.That hasnt happened in a long while. That video from automobile magazine on here, is just great. The car just looks fantastic. The front, back and sides all look just great. I have absolutely no doubt that people will be scrambling for this car, and sales will be the highest in years. in 06 they sold 40 thousand vettes. Im willing to bet anyone that they will beat that in a full sales year with this new car. Economy be damned. People will find a way to own this car again.

Words are usually separated by a space between them.
StingRay is one word the way I see it.

During the years Corvette used both.. The C2 cars where Sting Ray. The C 3 cars where Stingray...

I think GM got the best of both STING RAY and STINGRAY by making the R a little different.
