Keeks, good to hear from you. 
You have done more to increase the interest in the coming C7 than a short sighted GM could ever imagine.
Keeks= Man of the Year.

The C7 section is probably going to get a little slow after all this, which is too bad. Folks with real info are probably going to be more cautious about posting it now.
With the release of the car so near in the future, and we all have a very good idea of what it's going to be short of a few details, I wish GM would have spent more time reading the posts about the LS7 valve issues and responding as quickly to those as they did these photo leaks. Priorities I guess.

Thanks for all the kind words and great humor in my absence.
I am off suspension now.
Senior GM officials have been checking out my LinkedIn profile and for sure they know exactly who I am.
I have lawyered up and have no comment.
But......... i still love corvettes, will be ordering a 2014 and will continue to push the corvette love.
If GM hates me I can't control that, but I will die with a corvette tattoo on my chest.
My first born was conceived on the luggage rack of a 75 coupe.
Live and die by the vette.
The only reason I strived so hard to get the the NHL was to own a corvette..
My relative , Clare MacKichan is in corvette Hall of fame and designed 53-63 corvette.
They are my life.

That said, I totally agree that GM is playing this whole C7 marketing wrong and have said so for months on this forum. There would be no need for a KeeksCADTM if GM marketing were feeding the beast a little. Clearly, GM security stinks and they know it.

I kind of doubt they are going after Keeks as the poster. They probably really want to know how he came into possession of them and who the person on the inside responsible for that leak is. Thats the person they really want, and if they find that person, then he/she is in real trouble i would think. If he wants to keep silent on that source, then the lawyer will come in handy, so lawyering up is a smart move.

When you are in highschool,, you aren't aware of the spider cracking you can cause.
Let me paint a picture if I may.....
Playing some Def Leppard. 6 x 9s on 20 feet extension wires for good stereo separation. Full on hockey mullet.
50 yard line Clark Road Trojan football field.
The result is 24 years old now. He has a 6" full colour corvette C6 crossed flags logo tattoed on his chest.
His mother was unimpressed with the tattoo, but...... What can she say.
I hope this post wasn't TMI......

GM. In 3 months, the entire world will see the C7 Vette at its intro. Your "secrets" being revealed 3 months early on an internet forum is not going to allow your competitors to damage you. What can a competitor do with the extra 3 months? Its not like someone gave away the secrets to the Volt 3 years before it came to market. THAT would be damaging.
Yes, I understand the whole "it is our property" thing. But, with only 3 months to go before the reveal this "leak" has given GM an insane amount of publicity. The kind you can not buy at any price. In fact, it crossed my mind that it was a PR stunt done by GM. Everyone here is a massive fan of not only the Corvette, but GM in general. I would hope GM would embrase the excitement this has caused. Oh....and while I have your attention......thank you for giving us such incredible cars as the CTS, CTS-V, Camaro 1LE, Camaro ZL1, Cruze, Lacrosse, ATS, and of course the entire range of Corvettes.
