What a difference 4 days make.....
eztrader--"hope it looks better. I still think a 14 yr kid could have done a better exterior design."
wanna911--"Still don't want one though. Unless the looks are just that good."
Mike in CA--."..and there's one reason why it's cheaper....just sayin'......"
CAlexio--'is there a blower?
In a corvette?.. Usually in the passenger seat.'
ranger--"Easy,the Porsche will zoom right past when something inevitably breaks on the Vette."
wanna911--"Slap 650 hp on anything and go fast. But nothing to beat your chest about as you are so apt to doing."
MaxLTV--"C7 looks like a hyper-exaggerated toy car from a Playstation game - a go-kart is more stylish than that."

Just wow. This is the first Corvette I really wanted since, well, since ever!
I can easily see myself changing my 996tt for a C7 Z06. That's saying a lot. Good job GM.
Now, I will certainly wait a year or two to see how the reliability is. But that sure is a winner.

Had a few vettes and loved them for over 20years. There was nothing you can do to change my mind about vettes until the damn camaro/optimus prime lights came. The photo of the z06 was probably PSed so in real life, its the same damn stingray that breaks my heart every time I look at it. I don't care how they slice it, its the regular stingray with a few aero parts.
She's not a bad looking girl, she just went to surgeon once too many times.
Gt3 is my new girl now and like her because she has real natural curves. being pure also helps.

Functional.... sums up the new Z06.If your looking for a "track car" it's simply hard to beat any of the Z06's.
If you are into "cars and coffee" it's hard to beat any current Aston Martin, the latest "Fiat (Ferrari)", or maybe the new Jag. "F type".

Specs are great, but the looks....talk about over styled. Could they add any more bits?
Looks like a bad aftermarket kit.
A friend has a blue C6 Z06 Carbon Edition, which IMHO is the best looking Vette.

That's all functional aero and cooling. Just look at any race car. This thing is a beast. It looks all business and no fluff -- I love it.

Looks very functional but I won't have another supercharged track car.

My first and last comment on this car: Power, yes. Handling, probably good. Quality, mediocre. Looks, horrible. Target Market, a few racers, a few 20 somethings, many OTH car buffs. Bottom line, the new pet of the car mags and drag racers. For me, no thanks.
