Of the two as far as design goes I think C7 is a more complete package. I still can't get to understand Gen5 rear vs. front. C7 no matter what opinion about its design is I think has front middle and rear more in sync.

Are you looking at the same two cars as I am? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so I won't criticize another man's preference. But in the design side of things, I don't personally see that the C7 is more of a complete package than the Viper. The C7's front is good looking, the side to me is pretty nice except for the japanese-style gills and gratings and sharp edges. The back doesn't really tie into the rest of the C7's nicer lines, so I don't see that it's in sync with any part of the car.

This is what I see when I look at the Gen V. New car front end, old car back end.... I have yet to see one IRL, but hopefully I will soon.

That's fair. It really is subjective, no right answer on design. Best thing is to find what moves you, and go with it.

Yes, that's it. It's subjective. I see the same as FrgMstr plus that to me the ass is more muscular then front with Gen5. Somehow - for me - it just doesn't plug together, the front is little too soft, subdued and almost feminine. On C7 - well the ass is what it is but together with the sharp lines across the car, the vents, the hood, the headlights shape and size.... everything plays together. A transformers car :)

I've heard so many say it looks feminine in the front but this doesn't. I think if you keep those dumb DTRL's turned off the car looks mean.

Just saw this. Not bad at all. Some tail light manufacturer is going to kill the aftermarket.
