2 More Photo's of C7 Concept, best photos yet!



Notice the badass hood, and is that...YES IT IS! If you look behind the wheel you will see a Sting Ray!



Sharp rear, pipes look amazing, big-ass, bad-ass openings in the rear to let out all that air, and the roofline is kick-ass to match. Don't hurt me for this but...

SCREW THE CAMARO I'M GETTING THIS! Just kidding...I'll get both!

We've seen the mystery Corvette concept (who some dare to believe it may be named "Hot Rod") from the upcoming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie three times already. The first photo was a blurry camera phone shot from far away. The second shot was of the folks at Saleen busily painting the new movie star up and making him all silvery-looking. The third shot showed the mystery Transformers Corvette concept and a buddy about to be loaded up to roll out. Now, thanks to an e-mail tipster, we have the fourth and fifth shots as it gets close enough to the camera to see the "GM Design" logo on the rear end. Is it a prototype for a "C7" Corvette? Is it some hot Rodimus action? We guess we'll have to wait and see. (Hat tip to Anonimus Prime!)

I kinda like it... same old story though---> The production would have to be similar (just like the Camaro) for this to have an impact. I'd buy it, even though it looks like Batman would walk out of it.

It will change dramatically from concept to production. I like the promise that this shape gives. I think it will evolve into something really special.

i'm not a fan either (not like i could afford one anyways).

i guess i'm a fan of the current one, i never really liked the older corvette's either just the current one looks so good, they should just tweak it, that looks like it'll fly...and that rear end screams "omg omg i wanna be a lambo!!"

That backend is not working for me at all, the rest of it has possibilities. Almost looks like a stingray with a split back window which might be cool and the front end has some potential.

I may be in the minority, but I think that thing is butt ugly. The C6 looks 100X better than this.

GM needs to incorporate the traditional circle light design into that rear somehow. That just isn't going to cut it. Otherwise, it has a slick shape that will pull buyers from the exotic crowd.

There was a rumor going 'round that this was a one-off similar to the Guiargio Mustang; a third-party having some fun....

Look at the rear plate! "GMDesign". That squelches it, this is a genuinely GM vehicle!!!

You of all people should know that stuff can be Photoshopped! Just a thought.


I can GUARANTEE you that the next gen Vette will not resemble this.

Especially a car that's placed squarely on a pretty flat-purple background, right?

How? Honestly I can't for sure. But I would bet $ on it 'cause the roof is too low, the mirrors are too small. Where are the tail lights? Door handles? Government requires side markers. Etc, etc. It looks too conceptual if that makes any sense.

Are there styling cues that make it into production? If it is a genuine GM design, then sure. And some of the styling would be cool!!

Ah, see that's what I thought you were saying wouldn't happen. All clear now!
