Re: 2014 Corvette Stingray

Looks like a mid-life crisis car to me, good job!

Re: 2014 Corvette Stingray

I like the front end but the rear end looks too "cameroish" also don't like the interior. the dash shape looks like a mk4, supra

Re: 2014 Corvette Stingray

Speaking of interiors.. I just saw the new Dart. Very nice, not crazy about the exterior.

Re: 2014 Corvette Stingray

Just read new issue of C&D, with very nice reviews of the design. Better write up than the one done by R&T. Too many vents/holes? How about diff and trans coolers mounted in rear quarters, making use of the rear intakes, and air flow escaping through the one in the hood, after tilting the radiator forward to increase the air intake pressure. Many improvements in chassis stiffness, allowing fairly easy top removal without incurring additional weight to re-stiffen the car. Standard and optional (not for fat arses) sport seats, all from Lear, same supplier as Porsche. Many more details in an issue very worth reading for content, not just opinions on the styling.
Very awesome car!!

Re: 2014 Corvette Stingray

Sorry, but it looks like it came out of the Hotwheels design school.

I told my 14 year old grandson that, if I were to win this new 'Vette in some giveaway, I'd promptly sell it to the nearest Chevy dealership. He can't fathom why I'd much rather have fifty grand sitting in my bank account than in my garage.
