Most everyone who has said anything likes it a lot. Where is your rendering?

That's because they're BMW's - no one really cares about prototype family cars.

OMG CAN'T WAIT FOR THE REAL THING!!! As ugly as the stingray is, as this one might have solved everything messed up in the Stingray!! I hope so! IM willing to bet the next HI-PO C7 will be 6,2L supercharged. I always said that the ZR1 was a kinda test bench for the C7, since they had to wait to more years because of the 07-09 recession.

Simple explanation... The flared Front fender isn't ready or not desired to be put on the car (even with camo) so the suspension has to be raised enough to make sure the outside edge of the tire doesn't come in contact with the body of the car

Conclusion.... Fat tires!

I might just be my eyes but if you look at the white C7 and then glance at the covered car the front number does look different, but I think the rear fenders look the same width to me.....

Other than the notched front grill, this is the coolest looking C7 I've seen yet. The flared front and rear fenders make it look so planted. Paint it black or night race blue and it would be my dream car...

I can't wait to see the Z07. Hopefully they add new tail lights to that list.

Love the rederings. Hope it looks like that and has twin turbos like the one from the upcoming Caddy. Also, the C7-Z07 needs more downforce.

Im up here at the Hampton but they must be on the road. There is yellow tape on the ground and they put up a white tent to pull 1 in.

Hopefully more too come...

Great find and great pics.

The wait is going to drive me crazy.

And I'm fine if it's SC'd. It's not like ZR1s aren't ripping up tracks and providing tons of smiles on the street.
