It is amazing (to me) how much BETTER the car looks without the "wing" spoiler on it.
If that spoiler is indeed part of the Z51 package, GM just saved me $3K-$5K on the purchase price...

This shape and lines is probably 95% of what it's actually going to look like and it looks much better than the previous mules. The front looks good and the sleeker rear quarter panel makes the whole profile look much better. The rear is so busy that we'll have to see when the camo comes off.

I love the proportions of mid-engine cars... but 90% of them don't look this awkward. BTW, it was a joke... we won't really know what it looks like until the camo and what I think is additional rear padding is off of the car. Thanks for the advanced knowledge on "cab-forward" design though.

Less Chunky does not mean "Sleek" but an improvement for sure

Base model looking svelt!... loving the front end return to dual side openings like the C4/5 and no more fish mouth like the C6/7.
1. Seems there will be a vent at the front of the hood just aft of the fascia?
2. I think the quarter glass may have an air inlet like the Viper?
3. Rear end looks much lower than the C7 in this shot... the lack of the silly Z51 spoiler is much nicer looking.
