It does look like some of the drawings I saw or what was suppose to be the C7, I guess the design will grow on you as time go's by.

I wasn't wild about the first stingray I saw in 63, but it grew on me after awhile.

So much for us tall folks. I can tell there will be no head room for anyone over 6' 3" and up. Hate the backend and get rid of all the weight from motors opening hood and doors.

Interesting but a little too Batman for me.
Wondering how my 6'2" will fit also.

I think it is way over the top. I'll go a different direction.

not to mention, you can't get out of the car after parking inside the garage. most of us don't have a wide garage

That will never happen. Sadly I see the C-7 being years away as the Feds own GM now. As I see it the Feds foul everything up.

That is the "Transformer's" movie Corvette concept. Not this video, but much discussed here before. Do some searches, and check other sites.

Could be a test for consumer reaction, but likely little will make it to the C7. However, some speculation, and I believe the start came from a GM source, the split window may return on the C7.

Thanks for sharing, and to see more of it, rent the latest Transformer's movie. (for the Corvette... The movie sucks)

It would drive me crazy waiting for the doors to open / close.

Ugly, ugly, ugly. If you like cars that look like a Hot wheels toy, or a 14-year-old's refrigerator art drawings, then this is the car for you. Yuck.

it's a love-hate thing for me. kind of like the clam-shell hood (behides a C6, i'm also a C4 guy) - ditch the goofy lambo doors (even lamborghini dropped those things). i like some of the front and rear styling cues, and the split window design, but i doubt it willl make it into the C7. the concept is nothing more than a show/movie car - the C7 may have some of the styling, but the release design will look nothing like the video car.

I see Corvette going by the way of the 'working man's sports car' with some of that design/technology.

Now if that was the C7 I would buy it in a heartbeat!

In BLACK it would be badazz to the bone.
