I like this concept. Pretty aggressive lines on the body. We'll see if it makes it to production though, just as a few of you have already mentioned.

The first one would be a pain to clean. Think the rear lights are a pain to keep clean now, imagine that one.

Sweet looking Vette!


Question: I saw on the NCM email this week, the announcement reminder on the C5/C6 Bash coming up, that they will be unveiling the "New 2012 Corvette Model". Will it be the C7 concept car or an upgraded C6 version ?
Any ideas on this?

I'm still betting that the C7 will be a late 2012 production as a 2013 model (anniversary of the 63 split window)... but no one really knows for sure.

I hope they don't go for the "split window" design effect. It didn't go over in 1963 and I doubt if 50 years makes a difference.

I like the C3 coupe roof sails and vertical back window better. Of course a Vert is the winner.

I could be wrong, but I thought the split window C7 was already confirmed.

It might not have been a big hit in '63 but it sure is popular now. It's one of the most desireable / sought after corvettes ever... I love them !! I have no doubt the C7 (if released in 2012 as a 2013) will be a split window.

I found that email also... here is what is says: (nothing about C7).

Can you believe it? Corvette event season is just around the corner, our first major event being the C5/C6 Bash. The highlight of this event is the official unveiling of the 2012 Model Corvette, and the guys from Chevrolet are always on hand to present the changes to the car, conduct walk-arounds and answer your questions. You'll even be able to get up close and personal with the cars!

Other special highlights include rides in a '63 Vintage Racer or '62 Solid Axle Corvette, Bob Bondurant will be here for a seminar, Paul Koerner (C4/C5/C6 Specialist) and the Corvette Customer Assistance Team will be on hand to offer help with your car, Michelin is conducting a tire seminar while Mobil 1 tells about about their oils. Ladies will enjoy the Garage Party and Oasis, and we have loads of great road tours planned.

Don't miss this chance to rub elbows with Corvette royalty, catch up with old friends, learn a little something and have a great time!

I like the profile, but I'm not a fan of the head on or rear view.

I'm not a fan of this one and have seen it many time. Too cartoonish looking for me.

This is HOT!! Enough C6 cues but enough changes to make it a C7.
