C7 zr1 in Sebring orange is the best looking corvette. But I am biased. C8 zr1 is awesome car but I can’t own both and I’m not selling my C7 for one. Cool pictures and thanks for posting

All these years later and I still feel that crummy ol C7 ZR1 looks better than the new and improved C8 and at twice the price, does nothing to make the C7 look dated!!
To all C7 ZR1 owners, we are truly blessed

I have a C8 ZR1 on order and after seeing my C7 next to the C8 I too came to the conclusion that the C7 is a better looking car. It has me second guessing myself on ordering the C8. Maybe I will just buy a second C7 ZR1 🤣

The grand sport looks "Dated" next to the ZR1's and I'm sure they are both thinking "What The Hell You Want"

Showing the C8ZR1 with roof OFF, and, the C7ZR1 with roof ON, is kinda like comparing apples to oranges. I asked AI to redo the pic...
