  Big Nasty Z06 8 speed Auto - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Nicmaw B - January 13 - 4:35 pm

  Pure excitement every time I take it out for a spin, very smooth and comfortable ride, car draws attention, lets base fuel economy on driving habits, if you romp on it you are gonna get poor fuel economy, car sits low to the ground, I have no problem getting in and out, great visibility from front and sides, rear not the best due to the Z07 rear Spoiler, rear view mirror is great until it gets dark out, it auto tints, and there is no way to turn it off, audio system is top of the line, LOVE it, 2 USB ports 1 Audio Jack, Zone heating and cooling, remote starter, remote Convertible top, 2LZ, 2 sets of golf clubs, or a 500.00 shopping spree of shoes and clothing will fit in the trunk with ease, great car you cant go wrong, good luck.

  A Jet - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Ed Schmidt - December 28 - 2:43 am

  This is like a jet cockpit compared to my 2006. At 71 it will take me awhile to learn all of its tech. options. I have had young, old, male, and female give me the thumbs up. She is white with red and black interior with black wheels. It is not a soft cushion ride. It is a sports car in the true sense. I only have 553 miles on her. A funny- stopped for gas and could not find the gas cap release. THERE are none, not even a gas cap. Sitting down and reading the books are important. This is a keeper.

  Love it so much I married it - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Jeffrey - December 7 - 9:40 pm

  Ive owned both a 2015 and a 2016 model. Both have been exception in quality and pure pleasure to drive. No other car has excited me as much as the Corvette in many years. I would love to see them come out with a hard-top convertible- I think the lines with the rag top convertible are lacking when compared to the coupe- that said, with the top down the convertible is stunning. Will probably never happen- a hard top convertible would add substantial weight to the vehicle.

  best yet - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Darryl Vickers - July 27 - 10:19 pm

  This is our 5th vette, 99 Targa, 98 convertible, 2002 convertible, 2005 coupe and now the 2016 convertible. BEST YET. From hi-way to in town, easiest high performance car I have ever driven. Seats are great and the interior is plush, the leather is super and thats a big change. Auto top fast and quite. NO wind noise. Their is a monster under the hood, with the pipes open 460 hp. With a touch of the screen to close the pipes down its a quite as a kitten. Light it up and hold on. Turn the engine control to ECO on the hi-way and its get 33mph. Best bang for the buck on the market today.

  Gray Shark on the Road - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Auric22 - March 20 - 1:44 am

  Traded my 2012 Grand Sport in on a new 16 Stingray. Found on a showroom in Ky at the end of model year. Great trade-in on my pristine GS as well as GM loyalty rebate and excellent dealer pricing. Absolutely love this car - my first auto on a vette. Car as $17G in options but wanted the Shark Grary Metallic exterior w/Kalahari interior. Black stinger stripe, mirrors and spoiler with transparent top w/red calipers. Absolutely gorgeous. Quieter than my GS convertible and beautiful interior design and function. The nav. system greatly improved and got 19.5 mpg on my 450 mile trip home from dealer. Feels like you are in a cockpit, much improved ride over my GS, as car feels smaller and you aim it more that steer it! Time will tell how it holds up but I am in love with this car! People gush over it. 2018 Update: Well it has been 18 mos. and 16,000 miles on the car and it has more than lived up to my initial review. We to it on a 3,000 mile road trip to Key West Florida and it performed extremely well and we got 30 mpg at times and kept it in touring mode all of the time. It is quite comfortable and I love the power it has - especially getting on the highway in the accelerator lane or passing another car with the exhaust opened. We had burlwood installed on the dash, center console, steering wheel and door control accents which, with the Kalahari interior, makes for a luxurious interior and won Best Interior Award over 350 vettes at the 2017 Corvette Show in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Also won in Columbia & Osage Beach, Missouri Shows. Have not had one problem with the vehicle and cannot wait to leave this week for another long road trip to St. George Island in the Florica Panhandle and onto Gulf Shores & Orange Beach, Alabama. This vette is a keeper. If Bo Derek was a car, I am sure this is how she would handle!

  Spectacular! Love the C7 - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Joe F - October 5 - 7:27 am

  This is my third Corvette purchase. I had two C5s, a 98 Coupe and 99 Convertible, and I still have the C5 Coupe. The evolution in Corvette styling did not appeal to me at first. However it took a couple years for the C7 to grow on me, now I couldnt be happier with my purchase. I still love the C5 for the car that it is, and the C7 for the car it became. My only personal drawback (this is obviously a reflection of my age) is the extensive use of electronics on the newer Corvette. Guess that this could be interpeted as: I am flawed, the C7 is perfect. Our technically dependent society says so. :-)

  The Warble - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By David Houston - June 27 - 11:37 am

  I notice the "warble" when it goes from 8 cylinders to 4 cylinders. I think mine might have an issue as it seems to switch between 4 and 8 at times that I think it should not and way too frequently. Mine switches back and forth when there is no change in accelerator position or load, as in going up hill or down hill. The "warble" only lasts a second but it still is noticeable to me. I equate it to the pinging you used to hear from engines running on low octane fuel and accelerating. My car has never had anything in it but premium 93 octane fuel. It is a minor vibration when it happens but is still noticeable by me. I have yet to take it in under warranty as I know some mechanic will drive it for miles trying to replicate my complaint and I only let "special" people drive my Z51 3LT.

  Fourth daily driver Vette, C4.5.6.7 Crap cupholder - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By Lee - June 21 - 1:47 pm

  Fourth corvette. Obviously, I am a fan, but the Chevy interior design team or engineers must have been convinced that they did such a great job with the rest of the C7, they could go home early and leave the cup holder to their kids. Frustrating to turn a corner and have coffee spill all over the seats or the driver.

  A terrific car -- you become cyborg merged - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By drjwr - August 14 - 7:59 pm

  Overall, a tremendous value and top-shelf sports car, a view from someone who has raced cars on the amateur level. Its not so much that acceleration, handling, braking, and feel are superb; its that you feel attached to the car. A cyborg thing. The styling may be a bit over the top, compared, say, to a Porsche Cayman, but it remains a beautiful car. The interior is comfortable. Apple CarPlay works well. You can pack quite a lot under the hatch -- at least four suitcases. I dont find the electronics all that intuitive, but what auto maker has figured that out? My only real complaint, and it is a real one, is a balky shifter, made a bit worse (on my view) by the Active Rev Matching -- leave it off and heal-and-toe instead: The shifts dont flow naturally. You need to consciously go to neutral and over; although downshifting slides more easily into the next lower gear than upshifting. Professional reviewers have complained about going 4 to 7, when they meant to go 4 to 5; I have not had that problem. More of a nuisance has been downshift 7 to 6 and going 7 to 4, because you have to feel "going right" after leaving 7 in order to hit 5.

  Great car - 2016 Chevrolet Corvette
  By TomVette - September 6 - 9:25 pm

  This is my third Vette. I had two prior C5s which were great, but just wasnt personally fond of the C6 styling (though its a great car). The C7 is the only Vette that my wife finds really comfortable to ride in. The seats are supportive, entry and exit is far better and the car feels very confident. The optional exhaust allows for the exhaust to be tamed down when that is appropriate and opened up when you are driving aggressively. Handling, traction and acceleration are inspiring. The 8 speed automatic is state of the art with almost no shift lag. The looks of any car is very personal. That said, I like this car. The fit and finish is excellent and the styling is fresh. Highly recommended.
