Design student concept. Very evolutionary vs. revolutionary from the front.

Sorry to say but this has a big tread going on the C6 General section.

That design may grow on me. It isn't something that immediately wow's me.

Agreed. Rear end looks like a Viper GTS + Ferrari California merge.

I agree. I think the one Corvette design constant has to be the four round/oval rear tail lights. Similar to BWM "kidney" grills, the Corvette tail lamps are a staple of the brand.

Which is important considering that the rear fascia is the part of the Corvette most other drivers see!

I agree with you. We need to see something for awhile in order to get accustomed to it.

My first girlfriend in the 90's was not initially very attractive to me. But after I got to spend some time with her and get used to her, I actually found her to be quite beautiful.
Our perceptions do change.

I keep looking at this rendition. The front is growing on me the the lines on the side and the rear end are not.
