I have a soft spot for their engine over the DOHV designs and did like
the seats but they just blew it on the body design. I'd take the old
design of the Lexus SC300 any day but they dumped their V8 this year..
Then there's the brutal design cues of the Lamborghini that could have
sent the C7 over the top instead of the Ford method of adding chrome,
vents, and scoops. The only thing they took from the 2009 concept car
was the stingray and the nose flag emblem. So sad. The Corvette design
should be a leap ahead not and added wrinkle.
