lines

I liked everything except the side view of the rear quarter. For me the line is to straight, should curve down then back up for the rear spoiler. I like the swoooping lines.Like the new camaro the rear quarters dont turn down. I just like the old stuff cars,tunes, Rt 66

Beautiful design! Resurrects the Mako Shark influence that made Corvette so unique and recognizable. I think that would make a very popular retro treatment for "America's only sports car." Too bad it wasn't GM's idea.

Looks better than the first rendition, front end needs to be more modern. It looks like a step back from the C6, makes me think the air dam won't work as well and it just looks timid and out of place.

OK, someone has to disagree. Not my cup of Crown Royal. But, I like what I like and you like what you like. Works out.

I liked that design when i've seen it the first time back then in somewere of summer 2009 !

As that design already exist such a long time and nothing happened till then i guess it won't go anytime in production.

To bad. Really liked that retro-C3-style.

I like it. One of the best custom concepts I've seen for the C3. My impression is that a C3 and C5 had a love child. Too bad it seems they did not produce it or if they did not in any great numbers. If that was available I would consider it.

If you look at the last picture above in maroon. And you are looking at the back window tell me that doesn't look like a mid year big block hood scoop. cool
