Jeeees. It just hit me. They look like two Ninja Turtles next to one another. The eyes, the nose, the gaping mouth.....

Congrats on both.

I'm surprised how well the base coupe holds up looks-wise next to the C7.

The C7 does make the C6 look kinda dated...

Especially the narrow body base C6.


C7 has a more aggressive look to it.

Both look good, but I sure hope my next Vette is a C7.

My 2006 C6 was a wonderful car with only one problem in 95,000 miles. C7 is better in every respect in my opinion and time will tell if it matches reliability of my C6. Both great cars and I recommend both strongly.

The lower air dam on the C7 appears to have slightly more ground clearance. Still like Victory Red better than Flame Red. My wife said; No Flame Red, she just doesn't like it at all, to orangey. Went with Night Race Blue, maybe Victory Red will return in a year or two.

There seems to be more ground clearance in my c7 z51 over my 2011 GS. Probably the larger rim size in the c7

In my opinion all Corvettes are beautiful. What separates them is the technology. My first was a 1962. If you drove one today, as great looking as they are, on bias ply tires it would feel like a horse drawn buggy.

Now that you've pointed that out I'm never going to be able to not see a Ninja Turtle when looking at the face of a C7.
