Default C7 Revealed
They went for more modern design cues than I would have expected. Good job. I'd be tempted to buy one. . .

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

The short hood relative to the back portion does make it look a bit like a Lotus. Overall, I think they did a great job. They went much further with "modernizing" the design than I thought they would.

The C7 is looking sexy. They have to be low balling the HP numbers, 450 seems a little low i would expect 470 with DI/VVT. but if they are shooting for over 30mpg then i can seem them cuting the power to make it.

A vett with 30mpg would kill the in its class

I was just looking at the Car and Driver pics and thought the exact same thing. I love that 599xx, looks absolutely amazing in person.
