The pics were taken from my cell, and I forgot to turn the flash on, so they are blurry

If I knew this is what the C7's were going to favor, it would make my decision on buying a C6 real easy. I think GM was smart in shortening the C5 this concept brings that long and heavy to the eye look back. For me, and strictly my point of view, we've had that look from 68 to 04, it's time to continue efforts to move away from it. I think/hope GM will continue with the C6 stance, keep it more angular, more like the Cadillac but diffinately Corvette (no Cadillac headlights or grille). I'm hoping at this year's SEMA show, Chevy will have a C7 concept, my booth is close to GM's so I'll have four days to study it. If so, I'll take a lot of pictures.

The first pic is the most realistic C7 design yet. I like the third pic and the Gold/Black is a good candidate for the C8.

The yellow one is nothing more than a Camaro clone and hopefully GM stays away from the retro diseased infested designers. They have ruined many of the current models and turned them into bloated whales wallowing on the highways.

I don't care if it's a little smaller, but I don't want somehting that looks big and bulky. They ruined the Dodge Challenger already, no more of that pls. And the Camaro, is just okay. A little bit of insipiration from the older models is good though but the car has to be made to compete with Lambos and Ferraris those are are always smaller and more sleek. I like the back of the Stingray concept with the the 4 huge exhaust pipes, other than that it looks too heavy and big. I like the pictures posted at the beginning of this thread. The yellow Vette that looks like a F599 it also looks extremely boring.

Default transformers

On the filming of the new transformers movie here in Chicago a few weeks back - they had the new vet- although they tried to keep it under wraps. Here are couple pics of what I was able to see....

Gm uses a dedicated body on frame setup for the Corvette. Challenger and camaro used existing architecture from the Charger and Holden models respectively hereby enslaving the overall dimensions of those vehicles.BTW I totally agree with your post.

I sold my '69 and '82 vettes and lost interest when the ugly C4 came out. Didn't like the C5 either. So I wouldn't be surprised if Sideswipe is the C7.

Not a fan either but remember,Zora did not have the benefit of rear cameras and back up sensors.In the 21st century almost nothing should inhibit form and funtion.

Zora's main interest was in making Corvette a car that could perform against Porsche and Ferrari. From what I've seen after the govn't takeover this may no longer be the case. We'll know for sure in a couple of years.

Also, even though I don't like C4 styling I think Zora would have approved of the handling/perf upgrades which continued thru the C6 Z06 and ZR1.

That C3 design one is awesome, and the Stingray concept is epic, too. I have some picture from the Philadelphia car show of the Stingray concept, I'll post them up later.
