I like it, but is there a reason they are calling it the Stingray (other then marketing)

We have a thread in Car OT for this. Shame on you.

I like it. Not in love with it, but that may come with time. Not a huge fan of all of the black plastic and exposed CF bits on the red and silver cars, but they would virtually disappear on a black or dark gray car. Personally I'd go with a darker gray.

Gixxersixxerman · 01-13-2013, 09:18 PM

I'm baffled that they didn't wait until the 17th to unveil it.. 60 years to the date.. That would've been better IMO... About the car.. I like everything except the tails, as far as I know they have always been round or at least oval ish so traditionally they should've kept that in the design.. The rest.. I like and I'm sure will grow on me... Hopefully this drives the C6 down into price ranges I can afford

Very nice. Love everything other than the rear Camero type lights, and all the vents seem a bit overdone. Great evolution though.

I think my father is due for a midlife crisis.

I think they could have done without the longer and wider. Cars are getting too damn big.

VROOOM · 01-13-2013, 10:12 PM

Yeah... GM still thinks guys want a BIG BOAT instead of a smaller sports car. Actually, this doesn't look that much different than the C6. You can keep'em. That is why I bought the FRS. It may not be fast, but it handles great, it is inexpensive, and with a few mods looks nicer than the vette!!!
