The last shot where the tire is being shown or the rear quarters, to the right of that. Is that another C7 in the background blurred out?

It's too bad Abby is into street rods instead of Corvettes. She could sharpen up that image for us.

Can't really fix something that blurry. This is the closest angle I can find.

Not that I could detect.

Interesting indeed. I'm squinting super hard on the blurry picture and I see no Jalopnik quarter window. Only perhaps an air scoop near the trunk.

The big spoiler!!!Sounds kind of like a Corsa exhaust on a c6 at that startup too.

Take a close look at frames within :33 and :36 (with right arm tattoo guy) and it looks to have a quarter window to me, but real fuzzy looking.Taking in all the info we have to date, my opinion is it will have a quarter window but retain the "B" pillar under neath for structure (roll protection and targa top support) but hidden by the glass on the sides. Being operable would be a big plus for ventilation if it could be swung out on the back end. All speculation for sure.

With all the changes going on I would think it is time to move away from the big hatch window look, IMO.

It's 7:19.5 and it is old news - it's the ZR1's fastest 'Ring time.

Funny thing in this shot is that the side windows don't appear like the Jalopnik render and look more like c6 to me... at least in this shot.

I saw the frame you mentioned. It's really hard to say. You could be right.
