I like the look of the rear hatch glass in pic #2, but the rest of the car is :U

The flow of the car is totaly messed up as soon as you hit those bumps in the hood. The middle of the car is way too tall and the rear is still way too big. Hopefully the cars we are seeing are not going to look anything like the real thing.

And whats with the black out on the hood area by the windshield???
:withstupid: The rear is still to fat. The vert's rear looks like it has a bed sort of like an elcamino. :U :U :U

It looks like it might have pop-up headligths b/c the cloth where the lights would be seems to be seperated from the rest of the front end.
Uh... if they plan to drive these at night, it's going to need a tear away panel whether or not the lights pop up is immaterial. Think about this.

These may be the best photos yet! Part of the interior.....can see a possible line under the cammo for the shape of the back....excellent definition of the hood (mercy - look at how pronounced those fenders are!), great view of the glass hatchback.....

Thanks so much for posting this!

:D

The more I see of the new C6, the less I like. Seems like GM is trying to invoke the C3 look on a C5 but all it ends up looking like is a crumpled C5. There's no more smoothness and sexiness to the car. It looks more like it was designed by Cadillac's "Art & Science" Studio. :nonod: :nonod: :nonod:

Interesting that the 'Vert has a C5 coupe's rear hatch cut lines in the last pic.
Edit: Never mind, that's for the top to stow beneath. I'm slow this morning.

Also, to the person who asked about the blacked out parts of the hood near the windshield, this is part of the camo to break up the lines of the car.

From what I see of the center dash, it looks like it came straight out of a CTS--which is not a good thing. This may be to accomodate the NAV system. My guess, however, is that they are using a CTS dash as cammo; either that or the Corvette guys are retarded a-holes who screwed up a good dash design.

Sweet !!!! I don't like it but the pics are :cool:

What's up with the mirror in the first picture ? The guy that took the picture must have had that vehicle buried in the mud :eek:

I still maintain that it's more of an evolution of the C5 rather than a revolution in styling of the Corvette.

Why do they have the black tape on the tips of the hood near the windshield? :confused:

Thanks for the pics! So far I like what I've seen and can't wait until they finally take the cammo off.

On a side note, I don't recognize the vehicle in the background of this shot, anybody know what it is? Is that a Aztek?
