I didn't realize how narrow the rear glass/hatch would be. it's definitely a departure from the c6, but I like it. The rear view of the tail lights on the white car reminds me of Gene Simmons in KISS make up.

That window seal and sidewindow frame looks awkward.

Those bumps (or their equivalents) are required by law to protect the pedestrians. When someone is hit, the protrusions are supposed to lessen the severity of the injury, by somehow scooping him up. Supposedly.

The C7 holds up remarkably well in the company of those Lambos IMO. Not as exotic, but it doesn't look out of place next to them.

I think the vette looks nice, don't see the negatives at all. I guess people are skepticle when there a new car out.
