 If you want a tour of the Corvette assembly plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky, or if you want to pick up your brand-new car there, you have until September 14 to make it happen. After that, according to a report in The Detroit News, the factory will close to retool for production of the next-generation Corvette, the C7. No timeline has been given for how long the assembly lines will be hidden from public view.

As for what they'll be building, for a car that has endured as much focused speculation as Roswell and Area 51 (and seemingly for just as long), it's a testament to the Chevrolet development team that we can still only guess. As for putting pictures to the theories, we've seen a rendering that some have suggested has real clout, we got a look at the front fascia a few weeks ago, a speculative visualization video a couple of days ago that we really hope is off base and, naturally, spy shots. We don't know when it will be revealed but, relatively speaking, it shouldn't be long now.

 One good thing about this forum being dead is that every new thread/post will not be about C7 rumors or Blue Devil rumors like when the C6 first started to emerge.

Why do people get so butt hurt when people say the interior is crap? The corvette is a fantastic driving car but its GM's own damn fault that the image of the car is so poor. When you sit in it, you really do feel like you're in an econobox. Ultimately, when you're paying the better part of 100 grand for a car, the feeling you get behind the wheel is important. If your surroundings look like shit, you will feel like you're driving shit, no matter how fast it is.
Its just sad when the GTO and Corvette have much nicer interiors but their supposed flagship did not get any love.

The words I hate are:
gangsta, ghetto, scum, poor, socialist, leftist, free healthcare, and leeching.

Aside Obama voters who like poverty and sharing misery from leeching of other's people salary, hating poor people is absolutely normal and justified.

Lots of different leaks, mostly for the parts manufacturer themselves. They even slipped up in a promotional video for the company boasting the advanced shapes they can make with their new yadda yadda yadda and a picture they used was the front nose of the new corvette. Woops. GM had that video taken down ASAP but it was too late.

 This Is Your Best Look Yet At Chevy's C7 Corvette

We've seen the new C7 Corvette performing some cold-weather tests, had sneak peeks of digital body parts and even watched speculative animated video. Thanks to our hard-working spy photographers that chased down this group of Corvette test mules, we can see most of these reports were on the right track.

Chevy is still doing a great job camouflaging its upcoming Corvette, but these new photos show us some new details about the C7 'Vette. The biggest news with these new pictures is our first glimpse inside the new Corvette, which reveals some stylish and sporty bucket seats that appear to be all ready for a set of five-point harnesses. Better yet, a glimpse of the new steering wheel would seem to show the angular, edgy direction of the interior styling. Like the exterior, though, the rest of the cabin is cleverly camo'd up, and there is still no definitive word as to what will be found under that long, vented hood.

One of the more unique shots of this bunch shows the new Corvette sitting next to a Camaro ZL1. We're not sure if this is for a performance comparison, but it gives us a great look at the size difference between the two cars.

As we start to piece together all of the images for the C7 Corvette, we're eagerly anticipating its official arrival which is said to be at the 2013 Detroit auto show.

 Steering wheel looks like crap, but the new seats look somewhat promising
