I think it looks pretty consistant on all sides as fary as a balanced style, but under the hood kinda seems ho-hum. Almost as if it were a C5 kit car.

It looks like they let the Cadillac guys design it, instead of Corvette guys. Too angular and not voluptuous enough.

I got this in an email.

http://www.chevrolet.com/new-2014-corvette/

The front and sides look great and so does interior, but rear needs to be redone.

Everyone I talk to says the same thing. The car looks fine to the back of the door and then they lost it. All they really did with the front was make all the C6 lines more pronounced. A person would have to drive the car to see/feel how the unseen refinements translate into the overall driving experience. The extra hp and torque never hurts. It would take a big effort to make significant improvements on the C6, a car that just seems to do everything well, from comfort to performance to gas mileage. We're certainly happy with ours.
