This car, aka
Sideswipe , will appear in the new Transformers 2 movie this month.
What do you think?

A lot of people tell me the "swoops" make the corvette cool. Someone is listening.

I like it - more flowing lines than the more recent production Vettes.

I like it, a lot of Corvette heritage in that car - split rear window and the fenders but a lot of the C3 is there as well and it brings the C3 back to the forefront of Corvette design. I wonder if GM would move forward - they let the prototype Camero be in the first Transformer movie, why not let the C7 slip in there as well for public opinion?

I like it except for the split window! Drive a 63 coupe and you'll see what I mean.
