Wow....I didn't think there was another way to make the round work. But this just changed my mind on that one!

You are crazy if you think there won't be circular aftermarket taillights available.

Wow, it looks like a Corvette now with that bottom half smoothed out and less lines. Makes the non-circular lights work now.

This has just shown me that there is a quick way for ALL of us to be happy, and just a subtle change somewhere else will grant us a similar effect. Aftermarket can get this done quickly for us.....

That actually looks good. Everyone will get used to the lights eventually.

Give up already the car has octagonal lights. Round tail lights are a thing of the past.

cobalts and impalas have round tail lights. If they actually ended up being round on the c7, would people still complain that they copied it from a lesser model?

something doesn't make sense here....

I had 7 emails asking the same thing this morning

I'm sure it will be one of the very first thing that comes out...

Another good example. The one on the left is much better, clean, neat and very attractive. Send it to GM so they can make the change! Now, how about getting rid of the spoiler?


Perhaps someone should get up a petition and send it to GM. I would be all for it.
