Its beautiful...if theyd do it, it would be the first relevant interior in the history of the car. Theres just no excuse for the vomit factory that is the c5/6 interior.

I love the split back, but imo they need to change the grille section, something just doesn't look quite right especially since the rest of the car looks so amazing.

I have a 99 C-5 vette and am waiting on the C-7 to debut before making a change.

Want is not a strong enough word for this car. I saw it in person in Vegas. Every angle is just stunning.

Saw it up close at the OC auto show in 2008.

Would buy one in a HEART BEAT!

Like everything about the car except the front end....If the production car is close to this (especially the rear window and interior), it will be time for me to get back in a Vette.

They keep showing this car, but they've said it's not the C7. Oh to be a fly on the wall at GM Design and see the next Gen Corvette and Camaro's.

I think it's stupid of them to say "oh it's not the C7, but this car entails subtle features and design cues which will be in the C7". They need to just come on out and say it this is the new corvette, give or take a design change here or there. If this isn't the new C7,......keep the new C7 and I'll take one of these! PLEASE.

I'd love to buy the new ZL1, but I think THIS^ car is worth saving for until 2014. I'll have stack loads of money to drop on this by then!

Who knows what the C7 will really be like. I suspect that the C7 design team doesn't know yet. Corvette sales are incredibly flat - our club's sponsor used to sell 20+ per month, but they've sold a total of 1 in the past 3 months. The point is, the bean counters at GM aren't going to spend a lot of money on developing the C7 until they're sure that the market will be there. All announcments to the contrary, I think that getting the C7 in '14 is extremely optomistic. But I am hopeful.

And by the way, from someone who does drive a '63 split-window coupe, the split isn't a big deal when it comes to rear vision. Yes, it takes some getting used to, but the real problem with the '63 is the very shallow vertical height of the rear windows and the lack of a passenger-side mirror. Neither appear to be a problem with the concept car. I hope it does make it onto the C7.
