the "Real" C7??? [pics]

Engine is being developed locally in St Catharines. Is aluminum with DI and there are no carryovers from other small blocks(all new design, cam in different place). Tests have shown about 20-25% more horsepower.

Now this rendition of the C7 I like. Nice clean lines and still retains the curves of the C6 that I like. I do not like the rendition that does not even look like a Corvette. If GM is going to do a C7, I think they should retain some of the curves that the current C6 has, with maybe a few subtle modifications. I feel the C6 is a true classic design, so why mess with a classic.

Man alive! The door entry on the top picture looks pretty low. Guess I'll have to learn the limbo to get my 6'4" frame into a C-7.
I'm sure the styling will end up being everything we hope for in a next gen. Vette..... I just hope they put steering wheel audio buttons on the base Vette, if $15,000 Hyundai's have them, why not the Vette? It seems silly to reach for the radio **** on a $60,000 car.

Gentlemen, ladies...GM has finally come to it's senses. At last, the real true performance C7 prototype with the most advanced suspension has been introduced...the new C7 Corvette F55, with AWD and an advanced twin turbo 327 V8 developing 555hp, this new, aluminum-framed, Kevlar-bodied Corvette is the replacement for the aged Z06.
