Default What do women think of the new C7????

I told my girlfriend that I was seriously thinking about buying a C7 and showed her some pictures and she replied with an uncertain tone in her voice "really?"

She is driving a Mercedes and is used to seeing me in BMW's Mercedes and a couple of Boxsters. Been a long time since I have had a Vette. She is cool and likes the stuff I bring home and is excited if I am and always encourages me but it made me wonder in general what women think of this car.

Ladies, what say you???

I posted a pic of the C7 a couple of times on my Facebook and every single comment from a chick was "holy sh*t that is nice" .. "Wow"... "Looks like a Ferrari"... "Sexxy looking" "how much is that like 100K??"

Keep in mind I didn't state it was the new Corvette initially.

Anyone not liking this car has either bad taste or just simply not into exotic looking sports cars. A Boxster gets no looks and attention, and isn't exotic looking. Big difference. A Boxster will look like a VW Beetle next to a C7 sitting at a stoplight.

I have talked to 3 women and they all quite like the C7 (two are Corvette fans in general and one is my wife). I wonder if what you perceive is the fact it isn't a BMW/MB/Porsche... a brand status issue.

That's what I'm doing, Arctic white Z51/Red interior/red calipers/black rims. I already made my order but wasn't 100% sure on the Carbon mirrors/spoiler... I'm still debating adding that on.. I just think they should have had a Carbon fiber spoiler option to match the Carbon roof..

I already ordered my C7 Z51.. Did you? Put your money where your mouth is cool guy... sh*t or get off the pot.. Or go back to the C4 forum and talk about how cool your ride is with cracked leather and your broken tape deck.

You need to be banned from this forum! You are new and extremely rude and have no respect for anyone. By the way any pictures of your $375,000. Fleet?
