It's a lot better than the parrot-faced, grand sport paint scheme, bastard child "C7" design I see in this section that looks more like a Lambo than a Corvette. It's sincerely frightening how many on here were "love it!" to that one.

[QUOTE=rockinSeat;1574512048]Remember, it took a lot of refinement to get from the Mako Shark to the C3. Obviously, the real car will have a taller windshield and the front and rear bumpers will definitely be toned down - remember Bumble Bee has a much more radical front end than the real Camaro.QUOTE]

Yes but the movie Camaros hood and front end looks 1.82 million times better and more agressive then the production one even though they are only subtle tweaks. Scientifically proven.

Well here are some spy pics, I didn't take! Of the new 'Sideswipe' Roadster version ... kinda cool. Still I'm not sure if this is the direction I would like to see the C7 head in.

Bravo! I didn't notice the hideous wing before, and it still has the unforgettable egg crate...

the original Stingray concept is growing on me for sure, this one might have set the progress back a little bit. However, i do hope (if this is close to what the C7 or C8 actually becomes) that they fix the front and rear end of the production car.

I'm a big fan of the stingray concept... but not of this abomination.

I agree with you....look at Camaro too, it took majority of sales from Corvette..why? new, futuristic design, while keeping something from the old Camaro look we all know....
it's time for Corvette to do the same...stingray concept is doing just that....I owned a C5 Zo6 and first time I have seen C6 I was a little bit suspicious, but then I liked it and even trade my c5 for it...I was tired of the old look of the interrior....the same thing will happend with C7
