Today, Chevrolet confirmed that the seventh-generation Corvette will
debut the evening of Sunday, Jan. 13, 2013 in Detroit. To kick off the countdown to the debut,
Chevrolet revealed the new Crossed Flags logo for the new, 2014 Corvette

“The all-new, seventh-generation Corvette deserved an all-new emblem,” said Ed Welburn, GM vice president of global design. “The new Crossed Flags design reflects the character of the next Corvette. The flags are much more modern, more technical, and more detailed than before – underscoring the comprehensive redesign of the entire car.”

The new Crossed Flags logo was unveiled at Road Atlanta, as Corvette Racing celebrated a sweep of the 2012 production-based American Le Mans Series GT championships.

The Crossed Flags logo has been a hallmark of the Corvette since its 1953 introduction. It has
always incorporated a pair of flags, one a racing checkered flag and other featuring the Chevrolet “bowtie” emblem and a French fleur-de-lis. The design has evolved over the years, but has been featured on more than 1.5 million Corvettes built between 1953 and today.

For the seventh-generation Corvette, the Crossed Flags design is a more technical, more angular, and more swept appearance – a proportion that echoes the new car. It is also a more detailed representation, showing greater depth, color and attention to detail.

More than 100 variations were considered before the final design was selected.

Over the next weeks more information and video content about the seventh generation Corvette
will be unlocked on www.one13thirteen.com. Enthusiasts can join the conversation about the
next generation Corvette, as well as keep track of any new announcements, on Facebook
(facebook.com/corvette) and Twitter@Chevrolet(#Corvette). Fans who follow the
#one13thirteen hashtag on Twitter will soon learn more and can look forward to exclusive
updates.

C7 REVEALED!

Those are the words that the Corvette World has been waiting for; pictures and dates of the long anticipated 7th generation Corvette.  Announced at Petit Le Mans, the unveiling to the public will be at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit on Saturday, January 19th, 2013.  As exciting as that public opening will be, the National Corvette Museum has arranged for an even more spectacular experience for a limited number of Corvette’s greatest fans.

This is your chance to be among the fortunate few who get the first public view of the new Corvette!  Not an early opening of public days, not the Charity Preview day, not the Industry Preview, not even the Press Preview on January 14th… think of a very unique and special insider only reveal on Sunday, January 13th, joining a group of select journalists and industry insiders for the first showing of the C7 to the world.

Working very closely with General Motors, Chevrolet and Corvette, the NCM has arranged a 2-day event which includes admission to this special advance press reveal and limited to only 150 enthusiasts.  The January 13-14 event includes 2 nights at the elegant Somerset Inn, breakfast, and bus transportation to The Reveal, the GM Heritage Center, the Monday Press Conference and dinner. The package NCM member price for two people (double occupancy) is $1200 (non-members $50 additional for membership). 

Registration for this event will open at 9:00am CDT on Monday, October 22nd online here.

You can be one of the first to have a brick in the National Corvette Museum with the C7 emblem on it!

The bricks have a C7 logo at the top, and up to 3 lines of text with a maximum of 13 characters and spaces per line. Brick purchases are a $200 non-refundable donation, and you can add an extra brick to your order to keep for $75.
