Default Is this not it?

In my late night rummage through the internet, I found this. Did a quick glance through this forum and haven't seen anything other than concept renderings. Is this car not the ME corvette? Badges on the wheels, stingray emblem on the screen in the background.

Default So well done!

That'll teach me to read from the back page to the front. Nonetheless, it's a very well done pshop job imo. The stingray emblem in the back had me thinking it was a video comparing it to its predecessor. :EDIT: I'll bet it fooled some of y'all too!

Very early fan photoshop rendition based on a Stingray. Not the real deal

Tell ya what, looking at the mule shots, this is probably as close as we've seen. The lines on the mules appear to be based closely on the C7 design.

OP et al... have a look at the thread below.

Very good info, discussion and "first-hand info" (from C7pimp) informing the latest renders and/or line drawings (that are very well done by firstvettesoon) in the thread. It's actually interesting/worth going through the whole thread.

IMHO... the thread below offers the best and closest glimpse into what the C8 will look like.

You didn't "rummage" very hard.


That's been out for years now.

Yeah, but think of all the money GM could save if they borrowed all those parts from the C7!
