I sold my 2009 Shelby Cobra GT-500 for a 2007 C6 and never looked back. Now I have a 2016 C7 Z51 M7 Coupe that will be built next week and this award just confirms my purchase!

Shush! According to a few curmudgeons here it's the worst car ever made and nothing anyone says will change their minds.

I traded a MX5 for the Vette I had ordered. It would not get out of its own way.

GM did a great job on the C7 so no surprise that it keeps earning praise.

Good to hear that the C7 is being well received by the press. I was becoming concerned.
