Cowl Induction hood and reverse lights on 5th gen

[rray200]

This is something I wonder about. Is this going to be standard on all the models, both V6 and V8? It looks great, but it would make sense to delete it from the V6 model. I wonder what the car would look like with just a plain, flat hood. Plus, how will they place the reverse lights in the back? I've seen the concept in person and it doesn't have reverse lights on it. Are they going to integrate the reverse lights into the rear bumper?

Actually, I made a point out of looking for the backup lights on the vert last weekend here in Huntington Beach. And they DO exist; at 5am (I even took a pic that didn't come out very well) I saw it backing out of the transporter and sure enough, there they were; in the black mesh area just above each of the exhaust tips. Hardly noticable AT ALL unless thery're lit. Pretty cool though

That's I thought they were, got any pics...?

I'm pretty sure that the hood is standard, or rather, will be....(don't quote me on that)

No idea on hood options, I don't think too many people know that type of info (if anyone) just yet

Regarding backup lamps, good question. I don't recall anything off hand.

Here is a shot of the silver car. Are they part of the LED tail lamps?

No, they're not in the tail lights. Here-

EllwynX, you got it. Would like them to be hidden as well. But, that probably won't happen.

As I said, it didn't come out very well, at 5:00am I'm barely awake but, the shiny things above the exhaust tips ARE the backup lights lit.

Those tails look sick.

OH....I love those Tails...IF THEY GET RID OF THE LED TAILLAMPS, I'LL PERSONALLY GO DOWN TO DETROIT AND TEAR THEY'RE HEADQUARTERS APART BRICK BY BRICK!!!

...sorry...

btw, it reminds me...You know how everyone is having trouble picking a color...well a saw a black C6 Vette the other day with it's lights on, I've gotta say, black makes those rear lights look sooooooo good!

I like the backup lamps on the concept for sure. I agree, they will not end up there in showrooms.

I really wouldn't put it past them, I mean why would they even put backup lamps on that thing if not to see how it would look? And where else could they put them, inside the taillamps? That didn't go over too well on the Implala..... I really, wouldn't put it past them....

The production model better keep the afterburner style taillights or it'll lose a lot of it's fierceness.

The hidden reverse lights are fine if they could make it to production, but unless they can REALLY make them bright, I don't see it happening. They're too low to be seen easily by others imo.

Next to the license plate (where I indicated in my pic above) would be an ideal spot for them to put the reverse lights and not ruin any of the look of the rear.

The reverse lights should NOT end up in the taillights no matter what. That will just ruin the afterburner look.
