Still just another Corvette...

Heck yeah. You do have to think though, with 620hp/650tq and ~3300 lbs, how much further can you go with a RWD chassis? If the p/w ratio keeps rising, I wonder if Chevy will need to start thinking AWD.

Have yet to see it in person but from the videos ive seen...the rear end looks fucked up.

Though i wouldnt mind owning one.

Prog · 01-11-2014, 03:52 PM

I love this fucking car. Gonna have to wait till there are used ones around though. Definitely not something I'd buy new. I really love what GM has been doing lately. But I still traded my Camaro for my BRZ.

Wasn't the Z06 of course but the one Vette I saw did look a bit odd in the back. It was white so the amount of black made it almost appear as if it were missing pieces.

Figure once I saw another it may help but my overall impression was good.

I like that front lip.

I never said the FR-S was faster or anything. I just hate Corvettes. And Mustangs.

i get that. i just dont understand why you hate corvetttes.

kALMIGHTY · 01-11-2014, 05:23 PM

Honestly, this is the only Corvette I've ever considered getting. A lot of people hate this new rear-end but I think it's fantastic. The C6 to me was kind of stale, and this is perfect.
Definitely at the top of my "next-car" list.

Maybe just as my irrational hate towards VW Golf. But I think I have some reasons, arguable, but still reasons.
