Whatever i may feel about the overall looks of the corvette right now is basically irrelevant imho... I'm just happy about one thing. They put out a car that will send designers and engineers back to the lab and make sure that their next gen cars can make a statement. Feature wise, the vette is what it should be even though im not in love with the looks. I don't know what the pricing is but... If it starts around $52/54k. they have a car that will affect how every car from the $35-70k range will be designed and made. And i hope it will be positive for us in Nissan and other sport car makers. Nissan has something to prove now that chevy is borrowing and possibly bettering our technologies. Nissan step up on the next Z and GTR. Especially on weight reduction and expanding the DCT to the Z.

A $10,000 jump in one year??? I don't know about that? At most i can see is a $5k/6k jump on the base car... Maybe with a track pack or something it will make it jump above $60k??? If incentives stay the same? You can take $8k/13k off the price at some point. lol ![]() |

A 99lbs lighter aluminum frame that's 57% stiffer Carbon fiber hood and roof panels LOTS of electronic tech like the 10-setting traction control and the e-diff Brembo brakes etc etc The existing base gets... nothing.

It would be too costly to change the production of the c6 mid cycle to move to any of these new processes, but for a all new design its worth it. |

Either way, the GM folks said "if you can afford a current Corvette you'll still be able to afford this one." That makes me think it won't be a huge bump for the base. ![]()

With this vette? I would have to wait for the smoothed out physical update to know. There's potential in this styling, but looks incomplete still. Oh and it's pricey. i been uppin' a lot of money to cars and guns. Last edited by UNKNOWN_370; 01-14-2013 at 02:13 PM. |
