meh... I still think the Stingray design is most interesting. For a domestic car that starts at $50k, you expect something a little exotic looking.

my dad hada '73 stingray........ white......... it was pure awesome, he'd often catch me when i was little inside the car in the drivers seat going "vrrooom! Vrrooom! powa powa!"

just dont take the round tail lamps away!

Say what you want about GM, they can keep a secret pretty well. Lets just wait until we see it---but it better have an interior better than their Cruze if they want to sell any of them.

I had a Cruze as a rental once I couldn't even find the dam aux input. The location of it was in the weirdest place. (compared to a 370z of course)

That looks horrible! That's gotta be one of the most uninspired designs I've seen. I'm not a huge fan of the C6 but this is a step in the wrong direction, IMO.

I think it looks pretty good. I didn't like the C6 design at first. Called it the "corviper" amongst buddies. It really grew on me. This one probably will, too. The new design, whenever officially unveiled, may tweak this image a bit. Looking forward to NAIAS

side markers make me sad... the ferrari-esque front.. meh...

I don't feel the taillights either, but have to see the car in person. My mustang lease is up in 2014! Maybe time to go back to the vette again.

I agree to an extent.

When the c6 came out, ppl flipped their sh*t about the headlights.

Cars change, evolve. And this is just a render. We'll see the real deal at Detroit in January
