I like it! Looks like a modernized C6 rear. The only thing I do not like is the ZR1 badge. I do not like the look of any badges on the rear. I would like to see a straight on look too, to see how it looks if you were standing/driving behind one.

Why show the ZR1 C7 which will be way later than the base C7? So is it really true? Show us a C7 base one.

A link to the true base model C7 concept I designed except the wheels would be a Silver finish

Uzimuscle, I think your work on your idea of a C7 is among the best I've seen and I really like the renditions. My only problem with most concept drawings, your included, is that most of the proportions are somewhat exaggerated which is why they look especially good. They would never reach actual production.
Could you please make changes to your base C7 concept to make it have similar proportions to the C7 camouflaged test car we have seen? I would expect the roof line would definitely be higher with the windshield not sloped so much.
Again, your work is really good, Congradulations!

While the rear end looks nice, all sloping upwards and back at the same time;
You will find the aerdoynamicist has much to complain about (i.e. drag).

GM should hire you bro....absolutely superb work!!! This looks like a $150K+ car in any part of the world!! It looks like a Corvette yet it has European flavors and looks younger! Wait isn't this what GM's hopes are for the C7??? LOL
With some minor changes to make the car drivable (not too slammed & aerodynamics) this should be what the C7 looks like. But who knows maybe the C7 might look somewhat similar?
One request though, your renditions perhaps look too exotic and finely detailed to be a standard $60K-$80K Corvette, I see them more as a potential Z06 or ZR1 ($100K+).....can you come up with some images that you might think will fit more inline with the standard C7?

Check out the shots of the camouflaged mules, and base your next sketch on them . . .

As you can see all along I wanted to bring a design that has modern surfaces and can compete head to head with the european's in style yet still having that American flair
The only image of the base C7 version of my concept I have on the net is here
