Pictures don't lie. That's how the base car looks from that particular angle and blaming the less than impressive appearance on "blurry cell phone pics" is just a cop out. The fact is if you get the base car with those wheels and no spoiler that's what it's going to look like, plain and simple.

Base car in first pic looks like a turd!
Z51 car in second pic looks good....even better cause of the black wheels!

Beat me to the post! I agree, I would not be a buyer of the base at any price!

You are right. Pictures dont lie.

Because that is pre-production vehicle. Not the production base car. It doesnt matter how blurry the picture is, that is not a customer ready vehicle and is simply a test vehicle.

Amazing how hard it is to understand this.

How much to you really think it will change? Also if what you are saying, will the Z51 in the video will look different also?

The OP sounds like one of those guys who is regretting his purchase.......BIG TIME

...Yep....you should of gotten the C7 buddy....you should have waited.....yup......you F'ed up

.......but take "comfort" in knowing you saved money buying the 9 year old model

I look forward to your next thread where you continue to try to bash
the C7 in order to justify your mistaken purchase.

Great for you, dont think you need to bash people who dont like the C7 saying they messed up and bought a C6. If you think the base car looks good maybe you should look at buying glasses before the C7. No one has thought that pic of that base looked good and that was what the OP was stating.

Unless he, and the others who dislike the C7, are just looking for attention. Maybe they aren't getting enough love at home from their families? I don't know, but it's beyond pathetic...

and get the hell over it.....serious.

Why keep posting about the car if you hate it so much??? Keep your C6 or C5 and move on.

All the whining, crying and complaining will NOT change the car or GM's plan to produce it.
So, only posts about how much we all LOVE LOVE LOVE the new Corvette are allowed? What's up with that? A forum, in order to be a vibrant and active participant in the social media forest....MUST be reflective of various opinions --- both likes and dislikes.
Please be more tolerant of those of us who don't much like parts of the new car.....that may be the only way that GM knows the controversy they have created with this monstrosity....ooops, there I go again.....

Amazing how hard it is to understand that the cell phone picture shows pretty much EXACTLY what the base car with those wheels and no spoiler will look like on the road? Yeah, I'm perceptive enough to figure that one out, my friend.

I do like the Laguna Blue with Black wheels for what it is worth...you do seem to have good taste.
