Based on all the other renderings I've seen, this is probably very accurate. I don't expect the actual car to show any major styling surprises compared to these and other depictions.

Overall, I remain very disappointed.

The missing link is what are the actual proportions and details. This yellow car looks as if it's been designed graphically and in a third world country.

The c7 will be stunning in final form

This is a terrible render and looks nothing like the CAD leaks

"Edmunds says: With only weeks until the official unveil, the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette remains one of the most anticipated new cars of 2013."

Looks as if GM's marketing plan for the 2014 Corvette is working very well, if it is one of the most anticipated new cars of 2013.

I hope so as I'm trying to remain positive.

That render is the ugliest *** this side of Rosie O'Donnell.

Don't freak out, these other renderings are just wrong. As I have said and maintain...the KeeksCAD is the real deal. And even like real photos, the CAD leaves a lot out. It will look way better in person!

It looks like they got the rear end wrong. I hope so. Click between the render and the picture of the mule. It looks like the angles are too sharp on the render, and it's too tall.

This is the 1st time I have said that any rendering of the C7 is ugly

Fortunately, the proportions are all so different from every other rendering that gives hope that there is nothing in the pictures of the yellow car that reflect the truth.

Isn't this the same rendering posted by BlueOx yesterday? There is a whole other thread on it.

Keeks said and was also confirmed by the GM brake job photo that there is a vertical bar that separates the front grill that matches color of car. I'm surprised no one has done that change on their renderings yet.....

Looks as if GM's marketing plan for the 2014 Corvette is working very well, if it is one of the most anticipated new cars of 2013.
The fact that the new generation of Corvette is one of the most anticipated new cars of 2013 has nothing to do with GM's marketing plan. It has to do with the fact that it is a new generation of Corvette after 9 yrs of the same thing.

Your right Blue. I spend just as much time scoping out the new darts and Chevy pick up trucks. I am sure that the buzz on all the other new cars is just as big..
