New C7 at SEMA??

Bhobbs · 11-02-2015, 01:04 PM

Chevy just posted this picture on their facebook. Could it be a new C7 or just an existing model they dressed up?

My guess is that its either a concept or cosmetic package. Although based on GM's history at SEMA, there often isn't much difference between the two.

Could be something to add to the lineup though, like maybe a new Grand Sport.

My guess is the new Zr1

My guess stingray + z06/z07 aero bits

Cosmetic package for the Z06:

Corvette Z06 C7.R edition

That's odd. They revealed the C7.R a while back. Not sure why they would act like it's a new reveal.

That sounds like a good base for the C7 Grand Sport.
