What is going on with that scoop? Looks something like the previous scoops but with some type of huge bulge ahead of the winglet.

In that last video the curves and lines are showing through the camo.

So far, all the camo cars have too-small brake rotors for the wheels.

That is because they are just mules for the next gen base model Corvette. Expect to see new mules for the uprated models after launch in July. Although someone did recently catch a mule with rotors that look identical to current Z51 slotted rotors.

I think for it's time the Firero GT was pretty sweet. I just remember it cost as much as a Trans Am.

Yep, I like that one, also. Can you imagine if GM did not go through BK and was able to put this out instead of the C7?

This is getting to look like more of a promotional campaign at this point rather than “just out testing”.

There is no hood vent... the camo is blowing up. The spoiler appears to be part of the Z51 package. We have not seen the "Z06" testing yet.
