Cool thanks for posting the video.
IMO they should have released the videos in the opposite order. The 1st and 2nd videos revealed a lot more of the car so I kind of expected a bit more in the 3rd and 4th.
The 13th can't come soon enough!!!

THIS MIGHT BE THE REAR DECK LID but with out the rear fascia on.In my opinion,this video has shown more then any prior video,but still shows more or less nothing that gives the actual look of the car away...3 DAYS!!!
Oh,and if that's the actual panel gap,they have some serious work to do to fix that!! 
Does the windshield look narrower than that of the c6?

Why post something if you don't want to know what people think?

Is this just a perspective difference or does this C7 frame above look to be flatter from front to back compared to the C6 frame below. Or the side rails are higher like with the C4 which I doubt they would do? Anyway it would put more mass closer to the ground and lower the center of gravity if the frame front and back were more on plane with the center IMO

It looks flatter but could be perspective. Front still looks like it raises up a lot. Good point about lowered center of gravity, though.
My GUESS is this image below is the front right fender with the double-crease and no nose yet installed.

And for those who might think it is the back end, I submit that the opening shown at the right wouldn't be wide enough at the back to get the targa roof section through.
I also still put a lot of stock in this image as very representative of what we will see at the back end.

I don't think any renderings show that crease in the rear fender area.This must not be the factory paint job as I'm not seeing the patented orange peel in the reflection.

Well I'm now convinced we don't have a 2x2 (which is OK with me, but would have been cool). I think this video shows a lot, and we will find more as the day goes on. Thanks Chevy for keeping us all interested!
