Number 3 looks like something Lotus would build.

I like the red one best but I feel it doesn't look like a Corvette. Not sure that was much help but...

Number 3, to me, is the most interesting but that is one truly huge butt!

Would look more attractive if the roof line continued in the same line its at just behind the seats.

Yellow car looks close to the possible shape under the camo, it seems like they have it built up under the bra area but its surely to get us off the real design....

Yellow version has my vote by a long-shot. In my opinion it would have the best reception among existing mid-engined sportscar owners.

I own a Ford GT, a Lambo Murcielago and a Ferrari 458 Italia - all mid-engined cars; plus my beloved 2015 Corvette Z06 vert in Laguna Blue.

I vote for the yellow one...again. Although I would like to see it be a bit more angular, the rear is just to soft...just my take on it.

There are some aspects of each I like; but don't like the whole package of any of them.

Just found this online. I don't know when it was drawn or if its a real car. That roof and A-pillar is sweet.


It actually looks better as a Corvette. Glad to see that my rant about renderings might have made a difference. Seems I'm not the only one that has been ranting about it though.

That sure is a real car... It was in Fast and Furious... Vin Diesel owns one... $3.4 million... That render is based on it.
