C7 spotted at Georgia Tech
 
For the GT career fair, GM brought down a C7. Folks were allowed to sit in it, start it up, take pictures and get information about working for GM.

Someone took some pictures and a video of it running, though they are changing the video right now, so I don't know if it's viewable at this moment. It should be within an hour, at the most, I'd reckon.

-C422

PS: As someone who saw it in person? It is the best looking Corvette I've ever seen.

They let me get in and start it up. It was legitimately more comfortable than any BMW or Mercedes I've ever been in. Of course, I'm looking for a seat that hugs me like a mother and feels like it could haul my fat rear end through a corner, but still. Plush and stable? So nice.

If I knew it was coming I'd have been there. One on order and haven't even seen one yet.

Thanks for posting :thumbs:

good stuff:cheers: If that is a 1lt interior that is all I need. Also, I just noticed the inner barrels of the chrome plated wheels are not chromed....this is neither good nor bad, but just an observation. It is a challenge in the plating process to do it that way, but it does save weight and money.:thumbs:

A lot of guys paint the barrels black. I did with my 2007 but haven't bothered with the 2011.

That's a non Z51 car that is why it has a small spoiler and spoke wheels. Whould like to see the standard interior .

VETJAZZ 09-09-2013 08:53 PM

Beautiful car, great pics. I also prefer the non Z51 spoiler.

It is Cyber Gray, as per the GM guys.

They also stated that that IS the base interior. They said that the car is literally the lowest end you can get, save the chrome on the wheels. A lot of engineers pointed it out today :P


As for the "we run this state" dawg (dwag) fan: You can have the one sport. We'll take literally everything else.

You all lead in basketball, but not in baseball nor softball. So we will take those too. It's football season you should expect this hate :cheers:
