I rented one for a week while on vacation. What an abortion of a car. I was reminded what a real car is like when I got back to my Lincoln last night.

Cripes... I really have nothing good to say about it. I could specifically list the things I disliked, but that would be a list of every single design element. Fisher Price junk.

The windshield wiper stalk was alright.

I think they look cool but have no desire to drive or own one

The thing had less than 3,000 miles on it and it was already a rattle trap. Buzzing from air vents, whistling from window seams, creaking like an RV over speed bumps... it's fat, you can't see out of it... I could go on and on. Sure it's a rental, but you don't/can't drive a car hard on Kauai. You never get above 60, there are 8 stoplights. Every time I got into that thing it pissed me off in some new way.

Did you run over any Moas?

Kauai was one of my most favorite vacations

Almost ran over a few! I love Kauai too, this is my second visit to the island and it was for our honeymoon. Fun times.

Just shutting the door on one tells you its a cheaply made car... fisher price is an excellent analogy... there is no resounding "thud" as opposed to a 4th gen Camaro. And yeah the "pillbox" view has probably contributed to a lot of wrecks.

Tried to warm up to the Camaro and the new 'Vette, just cant do it.

GM, now Government Motors, nuff said. Drove mostly GM cars my whole life but doubt Ill ever buy another one.

the new corvette is pretty special

It took me a while to warm up

The new Vette is no joke at all.

The new Camaro, sadly, is simply a joke.

Yes... Poking around the Chevy showroom recently a blacked out ZR1 drew my attention. Unfortunately I didn't have a spare 80G in my pocket. There was a fly yellow ZO6 alongside with a sold sticker on it... maybe Floyd just paid them a visit.

So what color is the new Vette?

Makes a big difference IMHO.

Unless its black its the wrong color.

Rabid speaks the truth

So you DID get one!!! Good on you!

#1 for me is Black, followed closely by shark gray.
Like to see the sunset metallic orange and maybe the yellow.

Now I hope you didnt get black wheels

Black was the only color for the 2002 Trans Am also as all others made the gray T Tops not blend in. My 93 was a coupe, only year available without TTops so no problem with red.
Same with the Vette with all its angles and black/dark trim pieces on all colors, needs to be a dark color.

I almost ordered shark gray because I loved Cyber Gray in the C6's. However, it is a flatter color. Honestly it looks like primer from a distance.
I really like white, but to your point, a lot of the details were lost in a solid white car.
I do have black wheels. I wasn't a fan at first and planned on changing them but they have grown on me. I may change them when the tires are ready to be replaced. It has red calipers which helps a bit to offset the color.

Never noticed that but next time I see a shark gray Ill check it out from a distance. Im sure you are right though.

Im sure the wheels look good with the red calipers. Still not a fan but it would be a dull world if we all liked the same thing. I like my chrome wheels on black but then again Im stuck in the 60s.

Pics when you have time would be nice.

Yeah who the hell buys a vette and doesnt post a pic.

Only here for the visual!

How about posting a pic? At least I post them....even if they blow you out of the thread!

This is honestly the only pic I have of it the day I brought it home...in the rain

Thats what Im talkin' about!

Black and everything matches but the wheels are still too much for Moi. I do like the red calipers though.

Enjoy that ride.
