The grill on both the concept and C3 Corvette are almost the dame, it has the dame wildly arched fenders, it has the same raised hood, and even the windshield/roof looks the same. I hope that when (or if) the concept comes to production it looks exactly the same, only the parts are dulled down a tad.

The C7 looks BRILLIANT! But if that is the Z28 Camaro...I'm getting the SS. It's just not working for me. I LOVE the exhaust tips on it though, hope I can get those on the SS.

That S28 is pretty much just a concept. It's not a production model, although it will probably have a different front end and a hood scoop.

It was leaked with production plans a while ago. Something along the lines of "new corvette replacent in 2011" or words to that effect. It was an official document that wasn't supposed to see the light of day.

well yeah, I heard that, but the speculation pictures looked like an updated C6, not an updated C3.

So my question is.... The Bumblebee photos. Is that still the concept car? The biggest clues are the gas cap location and the sideview mirrors. The mirrors almost look like the mule cars and not the concept. I cant tell about either of those in the photos.

If this is the Z/28 facia we may now have the 3 looks of the Camaro:
Base: Like all the previous spy photos we have been watching for months
SS: Like the spy shots of the silver one from today
Z/28: Like this bumblebee bumper

If that is correct (Big IF) In my opinion that would show without a doubt your Z/28 is the top dog.... Its a much more radical and mean looking design. and then you have to look at that hellofa scoop....

not much of a deal to me as im looking for the 3.6L DI LLT. It will most likely have the base bumper but you can spice it up with the RS package (did i assume to much? we'll see)

that is bumblebee. neither concept nor production car. based off the concept, but designed on a GT0 frame/drivetrain. case i point... notice the lack of reverse lights?
Bumblebee does not back down from anything. lol

nuff said. good call..

It would make sense to put the Z/28 front/bumper in the big motion picture though and get people excited about it..... well have to wait and see...

That bumper and excessive use of black paint is enough to guarantee this movie will be the biggest flop of the century.

This movie will be kickass what are you talking about? Its not F&F at all if that is what you are referring too. Also, the C7 vette does not kick ass..

If that's the Z/28 front end treatment they much as well slap some "R-type" stickers on it, glue some stove pipes to the muffler tips, and call it done.
