I think this last one is black, maybe even the one in front of it. From Mike Furman...

Black is the way to go on this car.... Makes the rear end look so much better, and complements those new headlights!. I called my dealer and begged him to get black wheels added to my build, however I was told it's not possible this late into production.... I'm now scheduling a powder coating session at a local shop this winter

Not really, the C7 is actually pretty tame in person...it does not look over-done. This is more like your photo:



Don't get me wrong, the lambo is not bad looking (and I would die to own one), but it's a bit of a mess...they went too far. When a car stops looking like a car and more like a fighter jet, you know the design team probably went too far. The sad part however, is that the rear visability cannot be much worse than the C7. When I sat in the C7, the rear window looked damn near flat. The side windows are useless as well. Accident rates will no doubt increase.

The first one is obviously a render and the second is from Gran Turismo I believe... But they both show off the potential of the C7, and how ridiculous it will look lowered.

That's a sinister looking pic. Looks good.
