7th Generation Corvette

[onehandle]

DETROIT – Chevrolet is redefining modern performance with today’s debut of the all-new Corvette Stingray. And only a Corvette with the perfect balance of technology, design and performance can wear the iconic Stingray designation.

The 2014 Corvette Stingray is the most powerful standard model ever, with an estimated 450 horsepower (335 kW) and 450 lb.-ft. of torque (610 Nm). It is also the most capable standard model ever, able to accelerate from 0-60 in less than four seconds and achieve more than 1g in cornering grip. It is expected to be the most fuel-efficient Corvette, exceeding the EPA-estimated 26 mpg of the current model.

“Like the ’63 Sting Ray, the best Corvettes embodied performance leadership, delivering cutting-edge technologies, breathtaking design and awe-inspiring driving experiences,” said General Motors North America President Mark Reuss. “The all-new Corvette goes farther than ever, thanks to today’s advancements in design, technology and engineering.”

The all-new Corvette Stingray shares only two parts with the previous generation Corvette. It incorporates an all-new frame structure and chassis, a new powertrain and supporting technologies, as well as completely new exterior and interior designs.

1. Okay, I'm impressed

And I don't drool over cars. But that... that is very good looking indeed.

2. I would give up the HUD on my 45th Anniversary Camaro for that digital instrument cluster.

But at two or three times the cost, it's not happening anytime soon.

You gotta feel like you're piloting a rocket ship driving around in that thing.

6. My dad

had a '63 Stingray when I was a kid. Wish I had it now!

7. If it doesn't have hood-mounted machine guns, it isn't perfect balance of tech, design and perf.

Sometimes traffic demands 2nd Amendment solutions

8. i think i'd be allergic to that car

9. VavaVOOM! Looks good in a solid color; It looks ultra cool in that color

That earlier one posted in red w/black accents was a bit much.

Anyway, it's great to see such a longtime marque mature in both the looks and the hardware department.

10. That's the kind of sports car I like...

It looks like it's going 200mph even when stationary.
