You missed my point. An answer to my question is relevant to both facts. You may well be correct as to what transpired, but I think we are entitled to hear it from the folks who did it, not your speculation.

That isn't entirely true. GM Authority posted the photo, and it has since disappeared. The photo has also disappeared from Autoblog.

Google Images search for Corvette C7 rear brought them right up. Just like the Kate Middleton topless pics, there's no putting the genie back in the bottle once a photo appears online.

Oh yay! CF did nothing at all to these pictures. They simply have been removed from Photobucket, where the image tags were pointing to. Here's the link to the rear: http://i242.photobucket.com/albums/f.../vetterear.jpg

GM knows that Genie is out the bottle, ... but what they apparently were able to do was to stop Keeks from posting what they feared he might also have, and that would be a full profile view and a full view of the yet unseen full frontal view of the car. Noo doubt Keeks have/had them .... but we'll NEVER see them now!
