Default First rendering of the 2014 C7 Corvette

I actually like it a lot! It's modern looking and muscular, but still looks like a vette. I see some Ferrari and GTR in there too. Hopefully the crappy interior will be nicely updated too.

Too many vents and the Camaro rear should not belong on a Corvette.

I hope the C7 looks alot like the Stingray Concept (Transformers movie).

Horrible *** IMO. Those tails look hideous. Hopefully it wont look as bad as this.

Tail looks horrid, too many odd holes in places, and the body lines are too sharp for a Vette.

I agree! The tail doesn't look that great.

Looks great! the production version will be a little more tone down without so many vents; it'll look even better
