What do you think of ........

**windsors** · January 13th, 2013, 05:49 PM

The New 2014 Corvette Stingray, what do you think of it, I love it, but I don't like the black wheels. I don't like black wheels on any car.

I just think black wheels look ugly..They've taken all the chrome off of cars, now the wheels.

That is one AWESOME looking car...

However -- WHERE would I fit my truck tires and other large parts???

I'm too much of a utilitarian --- so I'll stick with my pickup truck...

**crimsonpaine** · January 13th, 2013, 07:37 PM

My first impression was, it looks like a bat mobile.

You mean your 18 wheeler... It's a real BIG pickup truck...

**swerve** · January 13th, 2013, 09:10 PM

I meant my Dodge pick up truck at home...

**mikey3000** · January 13th, 2013, 09:17 PM

I'll take a truck any day. I drove a Corvette once and it was so uncomfortable. I'll pass.

I like it a lot. The lights, however, remind me a lot of a Ferrari's.

**Pianist** · January 13th, 2013, 10:20 PM

Looks great, but a little impractical for grocery shopping.

Oh, it's a beauty.

You pick up studs with it.

I agree, it does have a lot of the Ferrari F12.

**Yooper** · January 14th, 2013, 05:26 AM

I'd take it if someone gifted it to me.

Of course, I'd probably take anything at this point.

(Remember, boys, I'm still driving Granny's K Car.

Nice car. Prize?
haha

**mark1111** · January 14th, 2013, 06:53 AM

I like it. It only took 15 years to change the look of the last one.

**TheSpectatingLoner** · January 14th, 2013, 06:56 AM

After looking at those sleek, stylish photos and not getting one response, I think it's safe to say that I will never be enthused by cars.

I thought the same. It looks a lot like the Batmobile from the first Batman movie, except without the engine in the front.

**star-warrior** · January 14th, 2013, 07:25 AM

Looks like a Transformer.

Yep, that's exactly the one!

Look at the grille, the hood scoop, (although you can't really see it on that picture) the lights, the side scoops, and now they (Corvette) are making it more hatchback looking like the Ferrari. Still a nice-looking car, though. Both.

^you feed em breakfast???

**counterspade** · January 14th, 2013, 11:01 PM

Nice car! I'll stick with my '99 Ford Explorer with the squeaky front ball joints, bad starter and rear passenger spare tire, though. ;-)

I'm old fashioned that way.

Nice evolution of the current design. I like the rear window/decklid treatment. It's reminiscent of the 1967 Stingray, which was IMO one of the best looking cars ever made.

Keeland · January 15th, 2013, 05:17 AM

The entry level 2014 Corvette will have a 450-horsepower, V-8, a 0-60 time below four seconds, and will use lightweight materials, including carbon fiber in the roof and aluminum in the frame, to deliver better fuel economy than the departing model’s 25 miles per gallon in highway driving.

Still no station wagon.

**vettehottie** · January 19th, 2013, 12:17 PM

I love it. As a current owner of "the departing model", id say those hp and mpg estimates are a bit on the conservative side. The current base car is rated 436 hp and 424 lb ft of torque. And the mpg estimate of 25 HWY is a bit underrated as you can easily get 30mph on trips if driven wisely. Of course, who does that?

Ill take mine in cyber gray:
