for the money we paid on this car the camera is **** along with other issues we've seen. i'm not a vette fan boy that just accepts things that are lacking becaue it's a vette. i've spent half the money on other cars with better features and electronics then this car. the entire infotainment system is junk along with camera, leather coming off the back of seats, recalls, seat ventalation off and on, etc..... i still love the car but i'm slowing fixing the crap chevy ****ed up.

Mine looks excellent-you might try to clean off your lens.

One of the reasons Corvette is such a relative bargain is precisely that it uses many of the same components as in mass market Chevy cars. It's probably not unusual that the backup camera wouldn't be any better.

Remember, there are only 2 parts on the C7 that are carry-overs from the C6 or any generation.....the latch for the roof and the cabin filter.
