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.

I just realized I should have specified that I was replying to the comment about Corvette's always being about performance.
Sat in my first set of comp seats in a C7 the other day.. not the best (Fiesta ST Recaros are better IMO) but many worlds better than old Vette seats. The standard C7 seats are just adequate. Still better than older Vettes though.
All of those hard lines and vents probably are there for a reason. Ugly on some colors though.
