Corvette... the old man's car trying to cater to a younger audience. Kind of like Madonna, except she's not eligible for the parts upgrade.

Great looking car, but will probably be excessively priced.

George Wendt · 01-14-2013, 12:24 PM

Does it come in black?

terry78 · 01-14-2013, 12:24 PM

That's what she said.

3rdstone · 01-14-2013, 01:15 PM

Well, it looks good, and it's kinda cool that they're using the name Stingray again.

Not sure if I would've recognized it as a Corvette without knowing it, though.

knowsbleed · 01-14-2013, 01:21 PM

That didn't hurt the sales of the new Camaro.

THE MR. TERRIFIC · 01-14-2013, 01:24 PM

Looks Cool.

cherokeesam · 01-14-2013, 01:24 PM

Not bad, but I prefer the classic lines and styling of older Vettes. This looks more Italian than American; like yet another Ferrari or Lambo clone.

The Guard · 01-14-2013, 02:42 PM

Exactly. Remember when Corvettes looked like Corvettes?

Colossal Spoons · 01-16-2013, 05:54 PM

That's the Stingray and the rear end just screams "Camaro"

Darthphere · 01-16-2013, 06:10 PM

I read most Corvette lovers hate the new design.

I think it's a great looking car.

Silicon Surfer · 01-17-2013, 06:17 PM

Front end is too short. It looks like it has been tailgating parked semi's,

EnigmaChameleon · 01-17-2013, 08:56 PM

Looks like the offspring of a Ferrari and Camaro. What happened to re-visioning the cars to look more like the classics?

Showtime · 01-17-2013, 09:03 PM

Doesn't really embrace the foundation of what a Corvette is, but it looks pretty sweet.

chaseter · 01-17-2013, 09:28 PM

Wheels are too small.

Darthphere · 01-17-2013, 10:57 PM

My man-thing isn't small enough to buy this car.
