It looks good, but overdone. As for the performance, well it's a corvette, always been fast lol.
Clearly you don't remember the late 70s and early/mid 80s Corvettes....
Well, I'm no fan of Corvette styling from ~1974-1979, but the 1980-82 cleaned things up a bit. To me, 1968-1972 were the best-looking of that voluptuous/ostentatious era, but in any case none of the C3 Corvettes had all the busy-looking creases and vents of the C7.

Mid-80s means C4, which was a MUCH cleaner design than the C7 is.



In comparison, the C7 is LITTERED with spurious hard lines and vents all over the place.
