sorry about your tiny wang.

cameroncrazy1984: Looks like a Ferrari had sex with an Impala.

Yea, then with a aftermarket job to look like a Mitsubishi.

Want

dahmers love zombie: Yuck.

vudukungfu: sorry about your tiny wang.

bob_ross: Man, that is a bunch of ugly.

Why do you all hate America?

In all seriousness, though... doesn't look too different from the one they make now.

I think it looks nice.

dugitman: Not sure what you all were expecting. Looks like a Corvette to me.

They are all hideous.

Why pick one of the ugliest iterations? The '70's 'Vettes are just ugly. If you're going to reminisce and go retro, 54-63 were the good years.

That's the most angles on a piece of shiat I've ever seen. Maybe it's corn.

/or carrots.

Looks like a MR2 knock-off.

Cool looking, but not very corvetty.

I'm sure your '98 Maxima is so much more attractive.

Very airplane wing'ish. I wonder what happens if you push it over 100.

Because all drawings and prototype vehicles are released EXACTLY how they are initially displayed.

It doesn't look bad, I can't afford one anyway so it ain't my biatch.

Could have a functional rear diffuser a la an F430, along with some other aero tricks.

You'll be wanting a Fisker, then.

Sometimes, unfortunately, they're pretty close:



/Never forget!

It looks like a GTR humped a Corvette, and was slapped on the ass by a modern day Camaro. Fugly. And I say this as a 2008 Z06 owner.

Looks wayyy too ZR1 influenced.

/I was hoping the rumored mid-engine layout would come true.

i'm watching the old route 66 tv show right now. ditto on if you are going to go classic retro use the early years.

AcneVulgaris: Cool looking, but not very corvetty.

Pretty much my thoughts. It does'nt look too hideous (not that I'[m a car person) but it really, really doesn't scream "corvette"

Looks good to me. The deciding factor will be "can I fit", or will someone actually build a fuel efficient car that is made for tall people before 2014.

The current iteration Vette is just to short for me. My head hits the ceiling in all but a reclining position. I hurt my neck just trying to get into a 2011 Vette.

This seems to be an issue for all the new cars I have sat in lately. It's like the car industries engineers were replaced with pygmies.

That's horrible.

That's because it's the ZR-1 model, dweebe.

And that's not a Corvette, you America-hating, acid-tripping, twink-screwing communist.

V-8 front-mounted engine, rear-wheel drive, composite body panels. Otherwise... it's no Corvette.

They made it a 2009 mustang?

Zora himself played around with mid-engined Corvette concept vehicles.

/And they came with a Blue Flame inline 6 for the first two years of production
//And a 2-speed powerglide and drum brakes
///And have flip-flopped between fixed and flip-up headlamps

German engineering. Thanks for playing.

Meh...they went conservative.

First two years of production don't count. Sure, they are Corvettes, but it's been one way ever since.

And he might have played with it, but he knew better than to do that.

The Corvette is mid-engined.

The stately Trabant?

Why yes.

Exactly as I expected, and not totally unexpected since GM sources said that the C7 would be an evolution of the current Corvette.

That's not eye candy. That's not sexy. That's Government Motors.

If I read the words right, this isn't even a drawing by Chevy. This is what some guys with photoshop predict it will look like based on how it has looked in the past and how it has progressed over the years compared with other sports cars and how they've progressed over the years.

You didn't read the words right.

If you take them at their word, this is not a prediction. Jalopnik claims to have seen, in person, production-ready C7 Corvettes. Rather than taking pictures and potentially getting whoever it was who smuggled them in to see the cars fired, they took their designer with them so they could recreate the car as an illustration.

GM issued a weak denial on their Facebook page, and a couple GM employees online are rumored to have commented that someone will likely get fired over the leak, but otherwise there's no way to tell who is telling the truth.

The design looks reasonable, and is within Chevy's body language. The C7 was supposed to be evolutionary, which this certainly is. Plus, it looks significantly better than the "Corvette Prototype" garbage they put in the Transformers movies. It's angular, it muscular... I like it.

I love it.

I'm also Corvette bias.
