The sizzle in the Steak
This thing makes the gtr look like an altima in comparison, in other words bland and boring
and The GTR is what it always was: a Beast!....but a damn ugly beast.
The C7 is nowhere near ugly....and the Z06..ZR1...or whatever they want to call them variants will be beasts for sure. She'll be a sexy beast....something the GTR never was.

What can we say, you like ugly.
Someone has got to love the uglies. :wink:
...and yet you like the Viper?
The Viper looks great, as does the C7.
Pass the pipe!

I say again: me likey, especially in silver. 
Chevy did not screw this up.
Still not giving up the V/Beastwagon, though, need a sport car with back seat for little dude.

Viper always has and still looks better than the Corvette, only with this latest generation has the Viper managed to win in the interior department.
GT-R still looks like a bloated Rolls Royce Phantom of a sports car.

if you watch this video from the Today show, and all you're thinking in your head is "it looks like a Camaro", I'm sorry, the problem is YOU, not the car.

Here is the preliminary equipment/option list. This is not the Order Guide. The Official Order guide should be released sometime in April.
Now that you can look over the equipment and start building a car in your head, how would you build your 2014 Stingray? :bigears
Dave :thumbs:

So, what is Sarlacc and srika arguing about in here? 
If you're just stirring the pot because you have an issue with R, Dave...please take it to Ramblings? I want to enjoy the Corvette.
I asked nicely and said please.

The sizzle in the Steak
Now their may be "elements" that look like the GTR....but in no way does this look anything like that ugly.
I bet if I look hard enough I can find things that look like an Altima, Toureg, Camry, in the C7 too.
...but that's where we start getting into the stupid like "door latches" and vents located above or below nav screens.
I'll leave that kind of nonsense to the resident village idiots.

Sorry, but they are clowns to if ANYONE thinks this thing remotely looks like the ugly GTR.

The sharp angles on the car itself and the the vent design behind the front wheels take, bear, resemble, have elements, can be pointed at, viewed, whatever to drawing some kind of imagery that make people say GTR...
No one (I don't think but at least not me) is saying it looks exactly like a GTR. Just because you can't stand the GTR and love this new vette, doesn't mean visual comparisons can't be drawn.

That is one awesome looking rear suspension/tranaxle!
The quality of the components really shows
Upper and lower A arm, one lateral link.
AL wheel knuckle and upper A arm
Electrical control wires for the ferro-fluid shocks
spherical ball joints used for sway bar
Presume the one piece lateral composite lead spring is under the transavxle and mounts to the lower A.
Looks like the sub-frame is steel (painted which most don't do for AL)
The engineering geek in me lives for this stuff

Like I said, look hard enough and you will find all sorts of other car designs in the C7....you can do that for any car.Whether I like the GTR or not has no bearing on the fact that the C7 looks NOTHING like the GTR.
This kind of talk sounds just like the village idiot talk...except he posts nonsense pics with his talk of how everything look exactly like something else.
Come on now, be serious.
