    I like those wheels on the red one, I wouldn't mind a set of those on mine.

    They already said rear diff cooler and tranny cooler are in the back and use those vents.

    "There's a lot of race car in this seventh-generation street-going Stingray. Aerodynamics software from the Pratt & Miller Corvette race team shaped the C7's body, including a new hood vent that boosts front downforce and rear quarter-panel ducts that channel air to coolers for the automatic transmission and electronic limited-slip differential. That air exits along the edges of the taillights and rear fascia -- a natural low aerodynamic pressure point on the car."


    Also they are calling the motor the LT1 again.

    I would bet it's for the rear brakes only.

    Exactly. Diff cooler, trans cooler, brake coolers.

    Wrong "rear". By "rear" I ment the back. Sorry for the confusion.

    Personally I never liked the looks of the C5, C4,.....

    The C6 has been the only Corvette that I thought looked good.

    This new one looks like a Camaro, Corvette, and a CTS-V tried to mate at the same time and had a down syndrome child.

    That is hideous. They finally make a decent looking vetter (the C6) and then they go back to making them an ugly car again.

    A radiator in the rear of the car?

    Id be too tempted to pour stuff down those upward facing rear vents to watch where it pours out from.

    I dig it. It's a bit overdone but I still like it.

    But I'm not willing to spend 50-60K on any car. I'm just too damn cheap.

    From the rear quarter view it looks like a Skyline for some reason. I think it's the new rear side glass.
