  • 2012 Corvette

    http://www.corvetteblog.com/archives...rvette-c7.html

    I haven't got this mag yet but I saw it at work the other day. Is it just more or does the corvette look more and more like a ferrari/lambo?? Anyways.. .I think it looks awsome.

    key word "Artist Renderings" which really means they have as much clue as you and me as to what the c7 will look like

      :slap:

      I can read... I'm not saying this is going into production and a done deal... just wondering what some opinions of it are?

            I swear now, that the Corvette will be the death of the Chevrolet nameplate. They spend WAY too much time on that car, and not the cars that really make their share of GM's cost. Maybe if they spent a little more time on their other cars, the Monte Carlo would still be alive.

              True, but I would include our precious camaro and other concept vehicles in which GM advertises but does not or may not even produce! (ie I saw a commerical for the Volt concept! why?!?!)

              Put the time and $$$ into the current line-up

              However, I would say Chevy's line-up is the most competitive it has been in recent years

                The commercial for the Volt concept is a commercial to show everyone that GM is working on vehicles for the future that lessen our dependence on foreign oil, not really and ad for the car itself, so I really don't include that.

                As for this line-up being competitive, I beg to differ on that one. The cars are bland, over-priced, and need some work.

                  The 08 Malibu will be a nice addition...

                  I saw one going down the highway and it looked pretty sharp

                  as for bland, I think GM has alot more character than alot of manufactures (ford, chrysler, even honda and toyota IMO)

                      GM, yes, Chevrolet nameplate, no. I think Pontiac has the really sharp cars right now. Buick IMO isn't too bad, and Caddy is doing well with the CTS and DTS. I just think Chevy needs to get better at their styling, better interiors, body lines, more vibrant looks. Too bland....

                        Oh I do agree with specifically chevy. Impala, the soon to be late-monte's, and even cobalts look too similar

                        I think there sharp cars but a bit of variety would be nice. I love the impala SS interiors

                            But I thought Pontiac was now out-sourcing it's work, and then just restyling the body in their image...?
