hehehehe This folks is not tooo far from the truth. Lamp pods and front clip are a bit off as is the blend of the fenders to the hood, in reality its not that smooth of a transition.

Default Disappointed... now way!

I think this Euro magazine's rendition of the next Corvette is the best I've seen. I was all against non pop-up lights when I first heard about fixed lamps. But if the car looked like this, I would say the C6 is going to be a total winner!!!!
In fact, I would go as far as to say:- "GM, give us this car! ...exactly like the picture!!!!".

Cool looking machine!!!!

I honestly like it--a lot. The only thing I don't care for is the front cowling. It looks a bit too much like a Pontiac for me there.

Does not look like a corvette, Looks more like the next generation Firebird/comaro combination. If this is what the next Vette Looks like my next vette will be a midyear.

Yep. start with a firebird front facia and fold it and crease it and yuk! ... there it is the Euro guess. This mag must be owned by porsche. They hope it looks like this so that they can sell more boxsters.

I have to agree... I don't like it so far. I am wishing for more.

That concept has a lot of C-3 Shark influences. In spite of the power shortage, they did sell well. It also does not look like a 'baby step' evolution model. I'm not going to get my hopes up. When it is unveiled, we will have to deal with it.

Am I in the right place???
I know I must be in Corvetteforum.com with all these people choosing not to use their brains.

This forum is for Corvette guys who know better than basing their judgements on "artist renditions".

I'm surprised I haven't seen any of these yet...

Would everybody just do me a favor and put on their thinking caps??? I'm about to friggin' snap over here!!
