The last [I]real[I] Corvette. GM did it right. The American sports car. Not some Eurasian melting pot for the masses. My guess is the C7 will have dismal sales until the updated body changes take effect. http://www.corvettemuseum.org/specs/2005/index.shtml

I hope all the Negative Nellys move along. I'm starting to be embarrassed to be a member of this enthusiast group. A stranger group of adults I have never been a part of... and I am surrounded by double Es at work!

I hope you're right about the dismal C7 sales, and that they have to practically give them away. Then I might be able to get two of them.

wrong wrong wrong. Car is already winning awards. The thing looks sick!!! Ill bet you any amount that sales will go right through the roof. You need glasses by the way. There wont be any updated body changes. The car looks amazing.

I wish you were right and I could get a C7 at invoice pricing. Not gonna happen my friend. The C7 will sell at MSRP for several years to come. GM hit a grand slam with the C7.

I just registered on this site to let the OP know how retarded he is. Another C6 owner that doesn't like the C7? Color me surprised!

Can we please break out the C7 section so all the negative opinions have their own sub-section... It would be so much easier to ignore stupid threads like this one.
