Yes, they have been out a while. The first one has some features that seem to be contradicted by the spy shots. The spy shots show glass covered B piller likely part of a quarter window.

Amazing how some artist was able to pull a back end out of the air that looks better than what a blue-chip multinational company was able to come up with millions of dollars of research invested.

Those pictures were just Road and Track view-whoring for their website. They had no real information.

They have to be fakes
No way that they could f-up the corvette this bad. These images and the car and driver ones all have to be part of a disinformation campaign they launched to lower expectations and ultimately win praise. After pics like these every one will say "whew what a relief" when they see the real car...
Then again maybe they did decide to copy the camero lines with a little bit of "transformer toy” thrown in for good measure. I have no faith in a post-bankruptcy Chevrolet.
6 corvette body's so far, and they did not improve in appeal each generation. I think the c4 is hands down the least loved and perhaps the c2 the most loved. Is this order of corvette-appeal correct (C2, C6,C5,C3,C1,C4)? So where will the c7 fall? If the pics are correct I’d put it second to last.

Where did you put the C3?

A C3 (#26) and C2 (#4) are on the list. FTW!

I'd have to bump c3 up I think, to be fair... I'm jaded by some of the later years poor quality engineering.
