Default Check in here if you like Ox's rear end...

Of course, I mean Ox's rendition of the C7 rear

Personally, I think it rocks and that's just in 2D. Wait till we get to see the real thing!

Well, I'm glad that GM will have some fans for the new Corvette. Personally, I think this is the worst back end ever for Corvette. The rest of the car is not better than the C6 as far as styling goes. Lets hope the performance makes up for it.

BTW, my wife thinks the view of the back of the seats looks like a couple of suspects getting arrested! Check it out and see if you don't agree.

Agree with OP. I love my 2011 C6 and loved my 2007 C6 and my '85 C4 (back in '85) when I owned them. I believe the big old round tail light look is far from the reason why and am glad to see something different. Some will agree, some will disagree, but that is the nature of style.

I've said all along. This car is going to be spectacular. You could see it in the Jalopnik renderings over a year ago. I have complete faith in the Corvette design team that they will deliver a stunning car. The best Corvette EVER !!!!!

They should have kept the bubble glass, instead of going with the flat glass like the Camaro.

Kind of hard to do with the new design.

C'mon man, haven't I been embarrassed enough today?

Truth is that the whole car will need to be seen to be appreciated and I think the rear will be what sets it apart from all other cars in it's competitive space. That can be great or it can create problems, sales wise.
