The 2014 Corvette Stingray is one sexy vehicle. GM appears to have struck a home run with the C7.
Due to be released at the end of 2013, the standard engine will be a 6.2 liter V8 producing about 450hp allowing the Stingray to sprint from 0-60mph in less than 4 seconds.
The Stingray will be released as a coupe and a convertible, both looking very Ferrari like, which isn't a bad thing in my opinion.
Both will be available as either a 6 speed automatic, OR a 7 speed manual, taking a page from the Porsche playbook. A 50/50 weight distribution is something reminiscent of a BMW and the engineers at Chevrolet have spent some quality time in creating a classy cockpit that has more of a European flair than previous versions of the Corvette which were sometime a bit bland.
Magnetic selective ride will be available with the Z51 performance package allowing for crisp handling creating a recipe that will bring the Corvette Stingray back into the desirable sports car category.
Who's telling what sort of power the Z06 and ZR-1 will produce..... Supercar.

Awesome. Don't know about a 7 speed manual. Is that 5 forward and 2 backwards? Could get a bit confusing at high speeds!
