Sir, I am going to have to ask you to calm down.

Sir, I am calm. I would ask Chevy to do the same with this atrocity they call a Corvette.

I have seen it. An ugly car doesnt change from a picture to a showroom.

Thats your opinion...because for me it did...

There have been plenty of cars that I have seen in pictures that didnt quite strike me the right way..and then in person they either grow on your or the lines look different in person ....

[On_Her_Face]

Where did you see it at? I am jealous.

[blake06gto]

i love the look of the new vette. i cant wait to see the z06 model.

[boostedb16]

I have seen pictures of new cars and think WTF but when I see them in person. It changes to DAMN lol. The only thing I don't like about the new vette is the rear end.

[Doppelgänger]

I'll second that the ass of the C7 looks like...well....ass.

Chevy dealer in Roswell had one briefly.

Love it.

[Elbow]

Good looking car.

If it performs as good as the coupe then sweet.

[Bacon]

This may very well be a first for me......























I actually like it.

I really like the OEM wheels on the vert too. Better than the coupe. Just noticed, C6 flags on the center caps?

[On_Her_Face]

Another leak that came with the C7 Vert... (probably won't be on this model or the Stingray)

Find it.

First time i looked at the c7 i hated it, the more i look at it, its growing on me.

I was in the same boat, to me GM did great by making the "radical" change of the rear and I would consider myself a traditionalist.

I see a boost gauge

Sent from my Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk.

[SHHHH]

Does that say -12? So like 12inHg is the bottom end of that scale. That seems awfully low for a vehicle to only pull 12inHg vacuum. The ZR1 will be boosted they have already said that. The z06 will not be and both variants are getting hp bumps.

Also the rumored Corvette Coupe. 5.3L V8, less than 400hp, changed to the front fascia, fenders and rear diffuser.
Corvettes for everyone!:crazy:

Looks like a supercharger boost gauge to me. Says PSI

Ya its a boost gauge. What im saying is that the bottom end of that range says -12. What the hell is the -12? Hahaha. It has to be vacuum, right? 12inHg is low for a healthy running engine. Maybe GM just picked a # out of a hat and put it on there.

[.blank cd]

Maybe they did it for symmetry? Doubt it would read that low

[SHHHH]

Ya maybe its just a number they picked. The "-" doesnt really make sense since vacuum isnt measured that way.
Who knows, its GM. They seem to fuck stuff up, ike when claiming the ZL1 to be competition with the GT500. Then having its chief engineer send out love notes when Ford released the #s on the '13 hahaha.

For the Corvette Coupe reported to be a cheaper model I will believe that when GM says it. I could see the General making a dumb decision like this, they have done it in the past with the FRC (it was about 6-7k cheaper than the base Corvette). As for the ZR1/Z06 I have not seen an article where they have claimed one will have boost, and one will. I don't even know if there will be two separate models for sure or what they will be called. If you have seen any of this from GM, please point me in the right direction for I have been slacking.

In the higher performance models it would be sweet if they brought back the moniker LT5 and I wouldn't be opposed to having another DOHC Corvette motor... if it made the right amount of power!!

This would be my guess

I really hope they do not make a poor mans Corvette. Nothing official from the GM camp but I wouldnt be surprised to see it.

Another DOHC Corvette would be really cool. I havent seen anything directly from GM but there is an article or two written by Motor Trend journalist stating the ZR1 will be a supercharged v8 based off the new LT1.


As for the -12. I still dont understand how you can have a negative reading on that gauge if it is reading PSI. You can have boost and you can have vacuum. Unless they are calling it "negative boost"?(a.k.a. vacuum) Which is just silly and stupid.

Yeah it's just vacuum and they are just making it proportional, which would be silly if you have a gauge that ranges from -30 - +30 haha in certain applications.

Vacuum isnt a negative number. So it should say 12inHg and 12 PSI. Not 12 and -12. 12 PSI makes sense. -12 anything, does not.

Well that's a ford gauge!!! I know what you mean with the -12 PSI vs 12inHg, hopefully the software is still in the testing and they will notice this. With the -30 to 30 I honestly haven't seen boost many gauges that are evenly distributed. My old gauges were in bars and did not go -2 to 2.

Bars I believe can be read as a negative value. Vacuum cannot. So with that gauge I posted above it reads 30inHg and up to 30PSI. No negative numbers at all. You're probably right though, its probably just something they just threw on there for kicks and giggles not knowing what the hell they were doing........ GM makes no sense :taun:
