Easy on both the eyes and the body, the Corvette Stingray's interior is a premium space upholstered in leather and trimmed in aluminum and carbon fiber. The magnesium seats are a real treat, as is the 8-inch color screen on the center dash. Details, for a long time not a specialty of Corvette interiors, are now a point of legitimate pride, including two power USB ports in the center console and more good cargo space under the coupe's rear hatch than you'll find in a BMW 7 Series – even the convertible sports a big and usable trunk.
Finally, the Chevrolet Corvette looks like it could win a knife fight. Gone are the rubbery curves from the last two decades in favor of strong, folded edges and functional inlets. That lithe skin is bonded to an all-aluminum frame that's 100 pounds lighter, 57 percent stiffer, and otherworldly times more talented than last year's model – no additional structural stiffening was needed for the convertible. In top-up mode, the Stingray convertible loses the exquisite sweep of the coupe's rear roofline and hatch window, but regains its presence when the fabric top retracts completely out of sight behind the seats.
Beyond V8 power and a 7-speed manual transmission, every 2014 Corvette Stingray comes with 8-way power-adjustable magnesium-framed seats, keyless lock/unlock with push-button start, a power-adjust tilt/telescoping steering wheel, and the 5-position Drive Mode selector that lets you adjust the Corvette's driving personality to match the situation. On the dash, you get an 8-inch touch-screen display controlling the standard 9-speaker Bose audio and Chevy MyLink infotainment system and displaying what the standard rearview camera sees. All Corvette Stingray coupes get a removable carbon-fiber roof panel, while the convertible's electronic top can be operated remotely using the key fob.
Apart from the must-have Z51 Performance Package, you can add options that range from painted brake calipers – red or yellow – to an $ 8,000 interior package that includes premium Nappa leather seating and leather-wrapped interior, heated/ventilated seats with power lumbar support and bolsters, plus navigation and a 10-speaker Bose surround-sound audio system. Performance add-ons include Magnetic Ride Control's automatic shock-absorber system, a dual-mode exhaust that can increase the engine's power (and exhaust note), and a 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters on the steering wheel.

Chevrolet Corvette Overview and History
Chevrolet is the auto equivalent of a gene-boosted steroid-pumped feline. The ferocious cat was groomed by Swiss born racing driver Louis Chevrolet and business whiz Buick resurrector and former GM head William Durant, as a joint venture that started in 1910. Shortly after Durant was forced out of GM, he partnered with Chevrolet, whom he had previously employed at his Buick racing team, to regain the popularity he had lost.
The Chevy headquarters was set in Detroit and the newly formed brand was baptized, receiving its famous "bowtie" logo in 1913. There are several hypotheses as to how the logo design came to be, two of them being the closest to unanimous acceptance. One of the theories hints at the logo having been designed after a poster Durant had seen in a French hotel while the second claims the "bowtie" is actually a stylized representation of the Swiss flag cross.
No matter how it originated, the golden Chevy logo persisted. In fact, the brand grew at such a fast pace that it allowed Durant to regain ownership of GM in 1916. After having become wealthy enough, Durant bought a smashing 54.5 percent of GM's shares, reinstating himself as head of the auto empire.
Soon after the takeover, Chevrolet was absorbed into GM, becoming a separate division. Having gained even more strength after the merger, the newly formed entity was quick in starting off production and launched the model D in 1918. The V8 35 hp engines fitted on these cars were replaced by smaller 6 cylinder ones, that proved particularly successful on commercial vehicles. The engine gained reputation due to its high durability and earned the "cast iron wonder" nickname.
Only a few years later, Chevy revealed the SUV in its archaic form: the Suburban Carryall. Sporting rough terrain riding capabilities, seating for 8 and weighing around 1½ tons, it marked the beginning of Chevy's future SUV line-up.
The American producer continued its successful innovations streak by introducing the Powerglide transmission in 1950, becoming the first low-price competitor to equip its vehicles with automatic shifting. Shortly after the introduction of the fully automatic transmission, the legendary Corvette was born.
The Vette had such a good reception that it remained the longest running Chevy model in the brand's history, having also been the first American sports car to enter mass production. The Vette also premiered the usage of lightweight construction materials for the car's body, like plastic, at that time.
Following the acclaim garnered by the Vette's release, Chevy launched several other models, including the flashy Impala and the short lived air-cooled Corvair. During the 60's, Chevy reached its sales peak with 3 cars out of any 10 sold in the US. However, before such a performance was achieved, Chevy designed a new small-block V8 engine used to equip its '55 truck range.
This particular engine made it till today, going through plenty of modifications in the process ranging from lightweight, durable aluminum construction to ECU managed control and modern fuel injection for better dosage and increased power.
Although Chevy has been registering lower sales in the past few years due to uncontrolled brand extension, some of the "bowtie" emblazoned automobiles have become either cult classics or vintage collectibles, four wheeled icons as reminders of a past age of glory.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Consumer Reviews

2019 Chevrolet Corvette
"C7 way better Corvette than C6"
FYI, I am comparing this 2019 model to my 2010 base model with selective ride control and automatic 6 speed transmission, I have over 110k miles driving them in all weather except snow. I ordered custom a base 1Lt and mechanically only added the computer assisted Magnetic Ride Control (MRC) and Automatic 8 speed transmission, similar to my 2010, I did order the newest color the Elkhart Lake Blue with gray seat interior and black painted rims and every Stingray badging offered with the blackened chrome Corvette and Stingray markings, with body colored vent grills and high performance air filter. So it looks awesome in those regards. I added the Z51 grill a $ 400 option from the dealer with custom amber LED driving lights i created tucked into the top of the brake cooling air intakes and the Z51 brakes which cost me $ 2.4k at the dealer. I didn't want a Z51 optioned from the factory as I was going to add the MRC and it was a waste to do that on the Z51 suspension and was a $ 6k option with its complicated dry sump oil system and harsher ride. Stock brakes are fine but it looks better with larger rotors in the front and stops a bit faster at higher speeds. I also changed the tires to the all weather Michelins a $ 1k cost. The 1Lt interior has more than enough color LCD dash and console eye candy to keep you busy so its way more complicated looking than the 2010. The nice thing is there are still analog turn knobs for the radio volume, heater/AC temp, fan speed with conventional push buttons for the vent operation. The stereo is now 9 speaker Bose with a bit of a too much deep base subwoofer flair. All the steering wheel buttons are functional on this base model, nothing is covered off. There are 5 dash suspension settings and you can choose dash look to be your choice even in a different suspension settings. Launch control to attempt its rated 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds and 11.6 sec 1/4 mile runs. Interior room is suppose to be identical to the 2010 but due to the fighter cockpit wrap around dash it feels a bit more confined and the new seats do not slide back as far as the 2010 due to their thicker design but side support and overall comfort is better. I am 6'2" and can fit ok, leg room is good, maybe could use another inch back on the peddles but ok. Interior finish is very nice and high tech. Regarding performance, the throttle response is smooth, too smooth in drive its way too easy to get triple digests on what would normally be much lower speed passing maneuvers. The transmission is designed to jump down to the best power gear on hard throttle so be ready for that before you floor it. The paddle shifters are now like the Camaro left pull up to downshift and right pull up to upshift. I like it better not having to remember to use your thumb for upshifting like the 2010. The MRC is a must with the even lower profile tires, in sport mode you can feel the suspension track every contour but not harsh and surprisingly pot holes and RR tracks feel like floating over them with no hard hit bounce. Just like the 2010 but a bit more wheel travel it feels like on this model which is an impovement. I have not used the manual paddle shift much yet but the shift points seem smooth and quick. I used my Costco discount and my GM BuyPower points which knocked off $ 10k from the $ 63k MSPR as optioned. Runs fine on regular gas, 23 mph around town as much as 42 highway and thats not babying it at all :)

"It's A Smile Machine"
Whether you're driving, a passenger, or street onlooker, everyone smiles. I love my 2016 Z06. So fun to drive. So fast and responsive. It looks so Good. I have not one complaint about it. Overall quality is excellent. Service & repairs are affordable. Reliability has been great. Power, speed, and handling are deep into super car territory. You will never get close to its limits legally driving on a public road. I do my own oil changes and basic maintenance and the GM parts are very reasonable. I keep mine in the garage during the winter to keep it nice. It's not my daily driver only because I love it too much for work. But I drive it for pleasure every chance I get. Be prepared, you will get a lot of looks, stares, and folks coming up to you to look at it and talk about it. Everyone just loves this car, it's crazy. One last thing, get the manual. Rowing through the gears and listening to the tremendous exhaust tones is pure heaven.Read less

"Best Corvette Yet"
Grand Sport is my favorite trim level and this one handles like it's on rails. Magnetic Ride Control is a must have.
