New C7 Corvette.

[F Body]

Monday is when it's officially revealed at the Detroit Motor Show but a couple of Magazines have already leaked the front and rear views



The front looks very similar to the new Viper
What surprises me about the current Corvette is it's size, or rather lack of size, it's a fair bit smaller than a 911
Allegedly they are going to call it Sting Ray

Also why are the Yanks are now selling 2014 model cars because 2013 is so yesterday

Like that a lot....I'll start saving

Verrrry nice!

They really need to freshen up the shape and I think they've done a good job here. No doubt all the non-American fans will rip because of its interior... etc etc. But look at that, theres no way you can't say that is an impressive beast right there!

As for the Stingray bit, I don't know the history behind the name, but i reckon they should've made it a split rear window if they wanna call it that!

It's a sort of GT-R Corvette and non the worse for it

Interior looks pretty pucker

[FUBAR]

I like that a lot actually

[Big Mouse]

I like the flat section behind the shifter so the hot blonde in the passenger seat can lean over easier to 'show her appreciation'

That's very nice....shame can't afford one !

[Andy]

Wow, that interior is nice! Love wrap around driving positions like that. Screen/radio, angled so no passengers can mess with it too!

[VIPER]

Right hand drive

An Australian news outlet asked General Motors CEO Dan Akerson whether the new Stingray would get an RHD version, he answered "yes" and "soon."

That same question was put to lead Corvette engineer Tadge Juechter, and he began by stating that they've been wanting Corvette to get to Australia and "Our plan is to make this a truly global car." He then clarified Akerson's answer with "It'll be years away rather than soon.

Nevertheless, even after Juechter's curb-your-enthusiasm answer and Holden chief Mike Devereaux's sidestepping the line of fire by offering no comment, the responses led to this headline in Australia's Daily Telegraph newspaper: "Finally, iconic American sportscar, the Corvette, set for Australian showrooms."

Cue Tim Lee, GM's vice president of global manufacturing, president of its international operations and "the operating guy in charge." When the same query was put to him the day after it was put to Akerson, Lee said, "I have no idea what [Akerson] said but we have no plan to put a right-hand-drive under that bonnet. The Corvette is a Chevrolet, it's not a Holden, it never will be, next question." He added that there isn't even a plan for it, much less any engineering behind it
