Looks more "Corvette" in that regard to me.

Looks disgusting. I REALLY hope it looks nothing like that. If they want to increase Corvette sales, making it ugly is not the way to go.

INSTEAD .. they should build something more like this:



Corvette "Z03" by Ugur Sahin.

Styling is always personal, but that is not where GM needs to head with the Corvette.

And remember, those renderings were NOT done by GM. Some guy probably just took the Stingray/Centennial concept and crossed it with the current Corvette, perhaps with a bit of XLR tossed in for good measure.

The front looks kinda like a giddy, smiley, Japanese anime character.

The grill to me looks too cheap to be on a Vette imho. The design isn't bad, it just needs tinkered with a bit more.

I like how they said that if GM hadn't of gone bankrupt then it would have been mid-engine. They have been saying that the next corvette would be mid engine since the 70s.




And how can you forget this corvette in the back?
