*EDITED

Holy hell. As quick as I watched and posted in the C5 section and here the video was blocked as Private on Vimeo's site. Not even on Jalopnik, where I found it does the video work. That's weird.


Here's the video in case anyone was wondering

Video has been taken down (made private). I tipped off Jalopnik and they got screencaps before it was removed

I agree that this is odd... But why would they go through all the trouble to create a GM facia that possibly looks like the Corvette and post it...

I think its a big.... OPPS!

Default Too Late On the Pull

I already saw it.

I'm not much on "GM leaks" BUT given how Viper has ruled the merdia after the intro, it wouldn't suprise me if this wasn't a little hanky-panky by GM to get back on the media and get out of the "oh-hum."

I like the "actual headlights" better than the Jalopnik drawing. Their drawing shows the headlight inside and outside the bumper crease. On the Omega video, the headlight begins only on the outside of the bumper crease

You're kidding right? If not I'd like to hear your thoughts on how it does.






And now the "supposed leaked bumper"





I mean I'm having a hard time seeing any resemblance to the concept (even with 2 iterations of said concept posted above).

Sweet, thanks. As a plastics engineer, a manufacturing nerd and a Corevtte fan that was awesome.

Saving it now and uploading to youtube hahahaha I love Chrome.

Oh LS1Wolf if you have Google Chrome go to Web Store bottom right corner. In the search box to the left type in "FVD Video" and you'll find an "app" you can attach to your browser. It allows you to download ANY video from ANY site.
