First drive: 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

'America’s Sports Car' improves the breed

Published: September 11, 2013
Consumer Reports Magazine


The redesigned 2014 Corvette goes on sale in October, but GM has rented us an early version so we could sample the latest iteration of America’s longest-running sports car.

While this seventh-generation model is officially called the Corvette Stingray, most enthusiasts call it the C7. It’s more compact than the outgoing C6, yet it sits on a longer wheelbase. Styling is more angular, reminiscent of an exotic Italian super car. More crucially, the new Corvette is about much more than rapid transit. It’s a trimmer, sharper, altogether more sophisticated machine. Everywhere I went over the last weekend, this icon proved a magnet for approving gazes and cell-phone snapshots. (Read our initial track impressions.)

True to the plastic-fantastic car’s tradition, the Corvette will remain out of reach for many, as prices start at $51,000. Our example, with the optional Z51 performance package and other goodies, was estimated to come in at $65,000. But what you get for this chunk of change is arguably the most performance per dollar anywhere.
