there's a thread over on the "other forum" (corvetteforum.com) on the math behind the lights and their design so that they function as tail lamps AND illuminate for the back-up camera. After reading all of that, I get the impression (1) they really did want to make a change (2) they had this new indirect reflective LED technology to play with and (3) round lights would have looked stupid with the rest of the car. Or to use their vernacular, "it wouldn't have fit the C7 design language".

Regardless - I think the car is just drop dead sexy and can't wait to own one.
