I think the best example of Japanese style is the Lexus LFA .

QUOTE=Tom's GS;1581683046]Like it! Nobody has talked about or shown just how the top is going to come off yet? will it be a fixed roof maybe? Can't imagine GM is too happy right now with their new baby so exposed to the public eye, even though it is not official.....Yes, I see the 7 on the side, very cool[/QUOTE]

You can clearly see the roof panel in this spy photo.

Very nice rendering. I like it. And I like the car should that be as it appears in real life in January.

Rendering looks like horse crap. It looks dated and bland. Like the Jalopniks one better.

Seems like the consensus is that it's looks like _____. (everything BUT a Vette)

That's funny, I have the exact opposite opinion, I guess that's why we all see things differently. To me, the trinity rendering, while nice looking from the real quarter view, looks goofy, bland, and strangely proportioned from the front. Just awkward and not something I'd want to own.

On the other hand this rendering, while sharing nearly the exact styling features as the trinity rendering, looks much better and is really growing on me big time. The lines are more elegant yet aggressive and the proportions are much better. This is a car I would desire to own for sure.

Subtle changes really make a big difference here IMO.

David:

Great work! I think you pretty much nailed it. Now, if you can give us a rendering of the rear quarter angle, I think a lot of folks on this forum would greatly appreciate it. Again, great work! Much better than the Trinity car IMO.

Hey David, my observations were simply surface deep about how visually similar the cars look. Nothing to do with your renderings or originality.

Exactly. I'll admit I am old school, and can appreciate the technology and I guess there is just no way to create a modern design for a global market and not have it look like a Nissan, Jag, etc.

But, it looks like the Corvette will no longer be a "Vette". If you want high tech and that old Muscle Car image you have to just buy a new Camaro ZL1.

If you want a new Corvette you may as well go price shopping and get the best deal on a new Corvette, Jag, or Nissan, etc. because they are all the same car IMHO.

I disagree - I think it looks like a 2014 corvette. It's VERY similar to the C6, and i'm sure you consider that a corvette?
