Default C7 Chevrolet Corvette Z07 rendering

http://www.motorauthority.com/previe...-corvette.html

This latest computer generated rendering gives us a preview of a possible design direction GM could take for its next Corvette, suggesting that the unannounced concept vehicle seen on the set of the movie Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen could be the inspiration for the car. Some of the elements carried over from the concept include the egg-crate grille, vertical slat headlights, side vents, and the jet-fighter glasshouse.

From the description they gave, it's not good really but when you watched the movie, I mean the first one, you can drool over the cars and trucks they used. Maybe this one has features and good points of it's own, maybe we can just wait for it.

It looks like a 599. It's not a very good angle to see everything, but I kind of like it.

In simple language iIT SUCKS

IF THE GENIUSES IN DETROIT WANT TO REALLY DO SOMETHING, STOP SKREWING AROUND WITH SUPERCHARGERS AND ALL THE B.S. BUILD A V-10 WITH DOUBLE OVERHEAD CAMS AND SAY 800HP. THAT SHOULD DO IT!!!!!!!!!

A. It would sound like a Viper or (UPS truck)
B. It would be huge and the hood would be way too high
C. It woiuld weigh a ton. Upset the front/rear balance and handling. Fine for 1/4 mi but sucks for RR track.

If GM even makes it they will no doubt cancel the corvette completely. It just doesn't fit with what congress demands since they are using our tax dollars to run the company.

Looks like something Nissan would build as a 380Z or such.
