A little bit out there for me. I would say the new C7 may be based on that design, but the true design would be much different.

Can't see the back very well, but if it doesn't have four round taillights it ain't gonna be a C7.

Well a production version is always toned down some for sure. If you graft a more C6 ish halo and targa panel and flatten the rear some you could have a very interesting and modern Corvette coming. I wouldn't be at all shocked if thats not a 100% C6 chassis under that new skin either.

The Transformer info has been around for a while. Link

All I can say is GM must get a good laugh out of these posts.

I really do not like it. For me, the Corvette is first and foremost a performance car. I've never seen a race car that looks anything like that "C7." Form follows function and I say forget about that Matchbox toy car look.
