For me, it works... the edgy lines are the right progression in design.

I know the older crowd may cringe at square lights. GM is smart; the successful design queues from the Camaro program are showing up all over the GM designs.

Square/rectangle lights work with that rear end the circles would not.

GM probably has 4 different rear end designs, and they "leak" photos to get reaction. Lol

I'm not a vette purist, so I like it. If its as light as I read that it's going to be it will be a great performer in base trim. Rumors have the base C7 being as fast as a C6Z.

Yeah that last one looks too Camarolike to be a Vette. The Bowtie on the back gives that away. No Corvette has ever worn the Bowtie as a stand alone emblem, it's only used the crossed flags, but there has always been a small Bowtie in the red flag.

I really like the new bold design. Its time to have a drastic modern look to the Vette. I never liked the current body style. I didnt like the fact they got rid of the hide-away headlights. I know this new one does not have them either but it does look 100 times better than this current one. Hell, I may even trade my SS for one and I love my SS.
