I've been saying it all along, but I'll say it again.

First I'll say that seeing the actual car may just change my opinion.

Its an attractive car, but I'm not loving it. It does not say "Corvette" to me.

That rear profile screams current gen Camaro to me very loudly (because of the taillights and the wide shoulders). I mean, if you flashed that up for a split second on a screen, I believe most people would agree that the Concept Camaro popped into their head. At least it does for me. If that rear was actually the 6th gen Camaro, I'd be digging it, but for the Corvette...it just isn't right.

Side profile...looks fine.

Front...ehhh, not too keen on that either. Seems to say foriegn to me rather than American sports car.

Back to that rear, I know my opinion doesn't mean squat, but they could have kept the round/oval tail lights and gone more aggressive while keeping that instant Corvette recognition with something like this:
