    I would bet it's for the rear brakes only.

      "There's a lot of race car in this seventh-generation street-going Stingray. Aerodynamics software from the Pratt & Miller Corvette race team shaped the C7's body, including a new hood vent that boosts front downforce and rear quarter-panel ducts that channel air to coolers for the automatic transmission and electronic limited-slip differential. That air exits along the edges of the taillights and rear fascia -- a natural low aerodynamic pressure point on the car."


      Also they are calling the motor the LT1 again.
      Good judgment comes from bad decisions and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

        They already said rear diff cooler and tranny cooler are in the back and use those vents.

          I like those wheels on the red one, I wouldn't mind a set of those on mine.

            I need to sell mine before that happens...


            Not a fan of the C7.. I'd have to see it in person to make a real judgement..

              I like it. It's a step forward. It'll probably grow a lot on people once seeing them on the streets.

                  I won't be able to afford one for a decade or so...but on the bright side I'm that much closer to owning a C6!

                    I'm sure it's already been said, but wouldn't it look a LOT better as a coupe and not a hatchback? Then again, people would say they copied the Lotus. Still, a new FRC would've been sweet.

                      Exactly what I was thinking. They need FRCs again. Drop the hatch and a nice decklid, and that car would look much better. Get rid of the plastic rear end and put a real diffuser and you may have a winner.

                        I doubt they will have two bodies again, just too expensive and unnecessary.

                          You're probably right. GMs not about losing money anymore, would be cool though. That HR picture you posted makes me love the car even more. Fucking pimp, the rear ends on the Vettes from 1997-2013 have never grown on me and the Z-O6 was pimp and I almost bought one before my 12 GT, but this car could be my middle life crisis car.

                            Aren't you a little old for a "mid life" crisis? Don't you mean an "I'm almost dead so I better hurry up and spend my kids inheritance" crisis?
