A Nissan GT-R and a Lotus Evora had a child, and it was this rendering.

Still not enthused about the design - but actual pics may change that. Do not like the tail lights in any case.

What a hideous Camaro! The joke is on anyone thinking this Camaro rear end is going to be grafted on a Vette. End of GM legacy!
First they toss on Toyota Celica headlights on a C6 and looks like someone thinks a Camaro rear end is an upgrade?

Agreed about the tail lights, but you have to admit that rear window is a really nice design...

Frankly I was expecting to be more underwhelmed when I opened this thread, based on all the hype about the C7's radical departure from the current lines. Waiting for real photos, but this could have been worse.
Then again, I prefer the C5 to the C6 styling. So what do I know?
And a C2 would be pretty awesome.....

Looks like a Mustang Fastback Mach 1 & new camero Hybrid
Guess, I just prefer the soft flowing lines of the C5 rather than the sharp crisp lines of the C7 MachVette. Everything is just speculation right now. I'm sure things will change for the final product. I hope!

Corvette tail lights are round and seperated - follow that rule and it may look more like a Corvette than a Camero from the rear

I see a lot of C5 DNA in those images.
I think it's a bastard child as it also has DNA from the c6 and a hint of ferrari

Like all but the rear and like most I doubt anyone really has a clue about what the C7 will really look like.

X2.... But more interested to see what the vendors come up with as to after market parts which changes the looks and we all know that's coming.
Been busy and have not had time to read up on what the motor is like in the new toy but in my views, the C5 will never be beat for long and sleek look , and the C6 looks short and mean but was never a fan of the back end of the C6 or the full open front but their still nice looking cars and no one can complain about that big stroked motor on the street.
