Well, the C7 always looked best in black. Nothing like using black to play off its angular lines to form something menacing...

Honestly I just have some small quibbles.
1. The pointy chin beard things and the deflectors in front of the wheels. Just throw a damn front splitter on there and stop hurting my OCD.
2. The braces. That one chrome strip down the middle of the grill just looks cheap and tacky. Keep it black.
3. The side-mirrors. The whole car looks sharp and menacing. Then you get to the same side-mirrors they have been using since the C5...
I know, small details, but I am a detail-guy.
edit: anyone else think the C5 has aged well?

Amen to the c5 aging well.
I also totally agree with the braces and the mirrors.

Yeah, I personally think the C5 exterior is better designed than the ones following it. It's much more cohesive without extraneous bits. The interior...not so much.

Agreed.
Also, had that pic as my desktop for the longest time on my old PC back in the 2002ish.

It has aged very well also the fact that you can buy one for 15 grand is great. Performance bargain of the decade.

Black is fine and all but every third car is black. I prefer this:

Ya know why it looks so good in black? 'Cos you can't see the horrible black plastic shit.

It's still young. In two model years it'll get its braces off

C5 Z06 in your picture has aged well. The C5 in general has not. It's a product of the 90s for sure: melt all the edges!
I agree, the side-mirrors on the C7 have to go.

2010 was the reintroduction of the C6 Grand Sport and added some athleticism back into the car, which was previously a rounded tub just like its predecessor.
As for the C7, I'm not thrilled with its looks simply because they took the C6 and used a sharpen filter on it. I was hoping for something genuinely different looking.

I saw a few of these in this color at Chevy dealerships when I was buying my Camaro. It looks awesome, but I still think yellow is the best color for a Corvette.

I don't really mind the side mirrors, but after you mentioned the braces ... what has been seen cannot be unseen. I desperately want to reach into that photo and plastidip the chrome strip matte black for a quick fix if nothing else.

Yellow looks pretty great on it as well. And you bought a Camaro? That's exciting!

I got it a few months ago in November but I still can't knock the stupid grin off my face whenever I see it. It's a pretty sweet car.
