Which C7 is best C7?
#22
Nope, not for many folks. I could write a check for a GT3, but I don't want one for my nearly daily commuter and street cruiser. The same applies to the ZR1, Z06 and GS.

Old School C7s.....
I went with the Old School base non-racing engine, 1950s C1esque White exterior convertible. With '60esque, Black interior.
Other equipment added was 21st Centuryesque.

I have a Z51. The GS is the best C7 Corvette

In your opinion. I much prefer the narrow-body models for street use, because the wide-body larger tires are a liability and completely unnecessary. I also much prefer the cleaner lines of the narrow body vs. the boy-racer look of the wide-bodies.
If I wanted a coupe for occasional track use, I'd select the GS, but for that reason only. Once again . . . the best is in the eye of the beholder.

The best Corvette is:
The one in your garage
That is paid for
That makes you smile when you get into it
That is fun to drive.

If you really wanted to stir the pot, why not ask whether manual or automatic or Run Flat or Normal tires are better?
The best 'vette is such an individual choice... For me, the 2LT Stingray 7MT is the best choice, since I plan much more touring than infrequent track days, and the Z/GS models are great cars, but are overkill for my use, the 2LT package has the toys I want, and real sports cars have manual transmissions!

AA supercharged Z51 650HP, the power level of the LT1 just isn't enough if you are anything above sea level. In Utah we were at 4500 ft and the car was a dog (seriously)... I am about ready to trade up to a Z06 purely for the wide body. I am sure going to miss this color!
