IMO:

front 6/10
profile 8/10
rear 3/10

damn, why can't they get this car right? it's like they keep going back to redneck focus groups asking for input? need to open up the market... unfortunately, count me out

Needs more "speed holes"

I'm still going to withhold final judgement until we actually see the real car. But if it does look like those renders... everything is great up until the point where they gave it the Camaro's rear end. The side profile is nearly spot on. Front has some features I don't agree with but still find pleasing. Rear, especially the tails and glass... no thanks.

:iagree:

Looks bad from the front and terrible from the rear. Side profile is ok. Sure hope it looks better in person than these renderings.

Pre production photos right? Wait until you see all technical specs of C7. They are going to be true track enthusiasts dream if what I have heard is true. All aluminum frame, competition focused active handling and abs tune, synchro rev match in manual, incredible motor.

The back of that thing looks too Camero'ish.

I'm with you, man... it's already an incredible car for the money and no doubt they are looking to dethrone the GTR... that's why the styling part kills me... otherwise I think I'd jump ship... I'm going to reserve further judgment until we see the final pics - this feedback has been pretty heavy/universal on the net and hopefully the boys in Detroit are listening and sneak in some final changes.

From what I have heard 911 appears to be target and I think they will do it. Sounds like they are focused on making it a very balanced drivers car. I think only disappointing thing is entry I price for vette is going up.

I'm extremely excited about this car.

I see one in my future unless they do something really stupid.

That's what I'm thinking.

Still going to check out the new 5.0 when it comes out. It would certainly be a better choice for DD should I decide to hold on to the S and turn it into a race car. If I don't... C7 + 5.0 for less than an optioned 911... :icon17:

5.0 + C7 sounds like a reasonable combo to me. I just won't drive from December til march.
