Default Video: Different perspective of previous

Sorry if this is a duplicate but I searched and did not see it. This is a different version of the 'dude' video from a couple of weeks ago. This is by far the closest and most revealing look of the side and inside the intake and all the camo and padding in that area:

You can clearly see the real image of the scoop hiding under the camo. This looks to be a TT version testing. I bet that's the HX for the intercooler.

Look at that character line flowing through the door into the scoop.... that scoop upper part is the real deal and appears one piece with the quarter panel.

That swaybar may not be fun to change... looks to install on top of the cradle.

If that side scoop is real, I'm wondering how that is going to look. It really doesn't flow into the rear quarter, but has a very angular line where it juts out. I'm hoping that's just something tacked on under the camo, because I don't see how that's going to flow well. It looks like it could be a weird mixture of angular and curvy lines. The design just doesn't seem cohesive at all at this point. Hopefully it's just good camo.

Going to look like this IMO...

That looks better. Still not crazy about it, but reserving final judgement...

You see so many angles in the sides that the pics can show. It looks amazing! Good job, kids! I am even more convinced that front end is gonna be the best aspect visually. They’re hiding something really cool. For me, I’m really anxious to see the aero package options. Once I saw the Z06 in a video, that package sold me and I couldn’t even consider a base model. That’s the determining factor for me.

agreed. Side scoops are too exaggerated on the test mules. I’m hoping it doesn’t extend to the door handles like that. Hopefully a less pronounce version.

I am still thinking that the scoop start just behind the door line and will and can still provide enough air.

I just can't imagine that beak..,,it looks fake in the N.Y. pics...

I hope so! This is the best rendering imo and incorporates cues from the c8r which obviously are derived from production. I hope it has cool side vents and looks exotic. I don't get what kind of boring *** car some people want? This is what my 1000 bucks is banking on.
