Looks like a kit car. The Vette guys will love it.

x2, looking forward to the details. From what I've read in the magazines it sounds badass.

It will be amusing to watch it stomp the shlt out of a fleet of cars 2-5x its price, then read the bltching and moaning about how ugly it is or how primitively engineered it is. Let us not forget the endless rhetorical questions about whether gold chains are included with every purchase.

The Chevy designers always seem to have a tough time solving the design of the rear end of the 'Vette. But the C7 is worlds better than this abomination:



Good Lord.

That's funny. How many camshafts? Where? In the middle of the engine. POS

No thanks. would make baby Zora cry. "How much more confusing crap can we tack on"? (and yes, I have owned 'Vettes, this one just does nothing for me as far as styling). I'll stick with the simple lines of the earlier models.

I like it, kudos to Chevy for adding some style to a bland and completely forgettable design for generations now.

I'll withhold judgement until I see one in the flesh.

Doesn't do much for me in pictures. A bit too fussy. Not hideous, but also not "Gotta have it!"

Yikes on the design - looks a bit too busy in those pictures. I was hoping we can get over the fender vents soon? Maybe in black it'll be nicer. The rear looks too Camaro. But as others mentioned, I'll hold my final opinion until I see one in person. Sure nice to see that it still has a STICK SHIFT.
