Good Sunday evening everyone!

I am live in Detroit, about to attend a press-only unveiling of the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette.

The program will officially get underway at 7pm but we'll start posting stuff now!

Looks great! I like it.

 

Can't wait to see some "real" pictures though.

It just looks like the price tag is going to start at 100,000..

 

Josh- Do you have a viper?

 

[Zane]

Ok guys, heading over to the event now.

What are they showing.. the silverado/sierra were 1/2 ton models

will this be the basic 6.2 non-supercharged model? Or a 7.0 version?

[MikeNH]

Car and Driver said the price won't change much, even though much of the body is expected to be carbon fiber rather than fiberglass.
