Peopel really need to take a close llok at these.

I think this has been better then the C6 release and the fact it is been kept well guarded.

But i guess just like there is an AZZ for every seat. Cant make everyone happy
I'm not really complaining , it's just that the previous videos revealed more of the c7 than this one . IMHO they should of put this video up first .

Thanks! I think this one was the most informative. That looks like the rear fender, back seat debate should be put to rest and that frame appears aluminum.

If you think about it thats was the title of the 4 videos. This one was about " creation" not hot lapping with no camo around the nurbergring

Yep I will admit if I'm wrong. But I still think we haven't seen the correct rendering if the rear end.

Default I like it.

Personally, I like the way they are releasing it. It builds anticipation. Makes it more exciting.

I would usually just wait until photos are released in all the magazines to see it, but in this case, I will be watching live on here for the unveiling.

I know just having fun with it

It will be great

I still cant believ that it has not leaked.

They must of had some serious security and NDAs.

Remeber when the Z6 Leaked everyting a few weeks before.
That must of Pizzed them off.

And to the people that said they were not building these at the factory yet .
this proves it
I bet they took the old Caddy XLR Line and used that area to buld this.
That area was large when i toured it years ago.

That one shot of the C pillar door opening. The rocker section looks thicker and not necessarily flat ala C 4

To sharp of a drop off. I think hat is the rear left fender, due to the "L" written on it and those "vent" looking things could actually be the rear window etc. I dunno I just woke and need to get out of bed.
