C7 vs. Europe

Another fantastic showing for the C7 against a lot of amazing and EXPENSIVE competition from Europe.

".........an absolute peach of a car to drive at the limit".

I like the sound of that, and want one even more now.

This car acquitted itself rather well against some of Europe's finest sports cars.

Kudos to GM, and thanks Gthal for posting.

That was a great review. I loved the comparison of the exhaust noise and the different checks they did even though they admit exhaust noise is subjective. GOOOO CORVETTE!

Nice review but... The only place where the Corvette got really beat is in braking against the Porsche. They cheated because the Porsche had yellow (carbon) brakes that are a $20000+ option. Not apples to apples at all...

True -- In fact, from what I've read, the Stingray stops as well as most cars (or better). If fitted with very expensive carbon ceramic brakes it would stop as well as the P.
