What nthfinity said

Should be an awesome car, and may spell the end of the horsepower race.

there are still about "3" good years left .. and plenty to be excited about until then

But no way could GM bring something to market even a year later, and hope to have some kind of "good" business model for it's success.

Cool.
+600 HP cars are almost always cool. I'm not digging the exterior looks though. Z06 is more clean, too many things on this car look tacked on. If this was more like the Pratt & Miller car, it'd be sub-zero.

Sub-zero fastest, most powerful car well probably ever see from an American manufacturers ever thanks to California. Want one. Magnetic suspension and over 600hp, and dealership serviceable. cant lose.

It looks better in gunmetal grey, and yes seriously cool.

I don't get bothered like others by the engine view plate. A car that powerful needs to look aggressive.

I would say yes, and no.

Yes because it will be brutally fast in a Lambo Murci sort of way... no because it is slightly over weight in a Lambo Murci sort of way

Uncool; as its a function over form!!!

Not the coolest corvette ever
Does not look good, especially the side ducts
Does not sound good, no supercharger whine too
Quality is not good too, the dashboard is 2 cm off its place every time you accelerate

But damn its as tempting as an exotic-flavored ice cream to an 8-year-old in a sunny day
