I would like to know your logic to your answer?
The 1986 Indy Concept Car is a mid-engine car.

The C5 has more in common with the Indy exterior design (and the later CERV III) than the C6, although I'll agree that specifically the bottom half design of the C6's front fascia seems to have at least been influenced by the bottom half of the Indy's front.
