I believe in the Beer Fairy
I feel sorry for all of you getting the narrow base C7 now...
J/K.... Can't wait to see one of these with a real color on it and in person. I better start saving my pennies now.

People still believe somehow that GM will change the rear end. Reality isn't a place they like to be.

Certainly, the styling clues for one .... interesting - quite promising indeed.
But help me here what is the black valance piece hanging down from the rear, or is that retractable ?

An adjustable diffuser. Although, it appears to function more like a wing.
