I also hope the clear hood bubble is a prototype thing and not production-intent.

No telling, but someone here believes thats going to be a production item, from what they were shown/told.

How about "Emperor" as the name of this car?

He's got no clothes!

Those side vents kinda look like the old WS6 Ram Air Trans Am's of a couple of years ago....

I like the hood!!!

There's no "7S" badge jammed in the crease in the fender vent on this one either :p

I wish we could read the text on the engine cover. It almost looks like it says "CORVETTE SS" but it's too fuzzy to tell.

I think it just says "CORVETTE" on the dark grey cover. The side badges that I've seen that the mags say are 7S don't look like a 7S to me at all......

Default Engine covers..

You would think they would say "SUPERCHARGED".

so that's what $150,000 msrp and $100,000 additional dealer markup looks like!! Better fill up that piggy bank real quick.

Gosh, I had no idea that pricing and introduction dates had already been announced

Thanks for sharing the pics. Whether real or not, the forum needs this kind of stuff. It gives us something to debate, and if real, we can say we saw it here first. If it's not real - so what!

Too bad we won't be seeing any SS's in LMB . I LOVE the wheels! A clear hood?? And body colored brake calipers too. Interesting.

It's not totally finished here in the pix, the reason for no back end pix is that there is still moulding clay over it developing the rear design...

I don't think thats the final, final product but pretty damn close, for all I've seen and read on this and other forums.

I know when I saw the pics my heart kind of sank cause these pictures reveal too much and ruined the surprise that laid in store 7 months from now. I think its pretty much all there save for the wheels.
