the new Corvette C7

Viper is 110k, ZR1 80-90k... And yeah Chrysler- fiat gives you the dart as well lol

But a base model Vette is not really a "Base." And other than the Stingray, I don't know of any other Vette models they will have for 2014.

I want one but I still prefer the C6

BTW, Vipers look a lot like the Alfa 8C so there's that.

They're both Fiats.

Somebody changed their mind

i know ,im still unsure about the looks department but as you pointed out you do get one hell of a ride for the $$$

headlights and some interior features are what are copied from the Viper.

I still say the 911 and GT-R are better. The Vette's cheap, but I really dislike the design of it. The first picture Worm posted above makes it look like a bad 1999 concept car.

911 yes... GT-R no, too Anime for me.

Roadrunner please explain to me what they are supposed to do with the interior? Put the display in the glove box? It's a damn interior!


C6 ZR1 did the Viper copy it?

na man the 2 sets of headlights are different i dont see a similarity apart from the daytime running lights .

I know the looks are key, but when your hauling ass.. Who Cares!! Haha

And strangely I agree with Roadrunner, they actually look similar from the nose view. Can't tell what's the same in the interior?

Oh......I think now is a good time for this Roadrunner. Take the Viper love out of your eyes.

Polyphony sure know how to make trailers...

The only thing different is the headlight shape Trash. That's it from the old to the new one's. They didn't copy Dodge.

The location of the "oh Jesus" bar is in the exact same place as the new Viper, it wasn't there before on prev generations. That was what I was pointing out.

and Worm, if you are referring to the hood, that was on the original Viper and has been like that for its whole life.

I'm referring to the Vette vs Vette and it still looking like a Corvette. That hood design was/is very reminiscent of the C2.

I think it looks like [Censored] tbh.

Worm, they said they used the C2 for initial design. The front lower grill looks similar, but the C6 had it there first... Just happen to similar when the viper came back.

As for the video, glad they did a music background to mask the generated Honda V8 noise. Hope to see it in FM4, not horizon, where you really get the engine roar.

And back to previous comment about a viper "base" model, 2013 Viper GTS and then there is the Viper GTS-R... Right or wrong??

I don't know the history behind the build. I was just making an observation.

Well you've got a keen eye, sir lol

I took the liberty of tracing the major bodylines of the Vette and comparing them to some cars:

First, C6-to-C7:


Next, 599-to-C7 (sorry I couldn't find a good picture in red):


Keeping with Ferrari, F12-to-C7:


Staying with Fiat, the Viper-to-C7 comparison:


And something I thought I'd try, a V12 Zagato-to-C7 comparison:



And, to quote DarthMario:

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY wrong. The GTS-R is the GT2 race car, the GTS is the street car.

I really like it, but, my first choice would still be the C2.

It is too bad that they are not going with the traditional round tail lights.

there is the SRT Viper, and the the SRT Viper GTS and then the race car. but the only difference between the base and the GTS is a handling pack and a few pounds. engine is the same

Does snyone know who designed these cars? They could be under the same studio, or partner studios..
