While the rear fenders look to be wider(flaired) to cover the rear wheels, the front fenders are not. The front wheels/tires sure stick out a couple of inches, so they must be planning on flaired front fenders also to cover the front tires.

In addition to the splitter and wheels, it also has the same hood vent but with something more going on.

That's the new AWD offroad version. Look at the clearance between those front tires and fenders!

thanks for sharing man, here we go again! I think it would look badass like C7Pimp render. However since we saw early renders from Jalopnik and seeing that most if not all of their images were spot on, i doubt it.

Hmmm, you may be right...definitely a wider rump/rear fenders!

Then he said please ESPECIALLY don't take any pictures of those! he was gesturing to the 2 cars with the man in a striped shirt getting into.

I feel I may be able to get more pics later or tomorrow.

Of course I was in my blacked out C6.

Sucker punch him then take the covers off for pics!

I may need to run up to Anthem at lunch....I'm 10 minutes away from the Hampton.

Yeah, make yourself useful and take a video camera and some buddies to deal with the mall cop!

Buddy just went over there, as soon as you left they must of taken the drapes off. FYI they are moving the cars. My buddy tried to get a sound clip as they left but it was too distorted.. he said its definitely forced induction but can't tell if its S/C or Turbo.. they were accelerating slowly and shifting softly that he couldn't make out a pronounced BOV or S/C whine.. and they put cones as they exited from the lot.

The fan speed is higher than usual he thought, maybe to mask the sound of anything FI?

Also said there is sound deadening around the cutout in the hood (probably to quiet the engine)... he said the material under the drapes is different as the base stingrays didn't have this stuff under the covers like this car does.
