The front end of this car looks like a 458 Italia. So is this supposed to come out befor or after the stingray vette that can be seen here. concept stingray - Google Search

The concept car you linked was the base for the c7, a lot of the design cues were taken to build the production car.

The front end has been confirmed ... that is very close to the production design. I'm sure the rest of the car is mostly speculation, and I'm sure GM is keeping it tight to ensure the body isn't leaked as well.

If that's is a lock and that is what it's going to look like they better not make too many people are not going to like that or the price tag.

I have heard mid engine and smaller displacement more like the old ZR1 with DI like the Ferrari motors.

Heck might as well make it an eletro-gas hybrid. Corvette has always been about cutting edge design. Yet these days it more about keeping up with technology.

they can do anything else........... its just like what Carlos Ghosn told his team when he said he wanted the GTR back.

" i only had one request........ Round Tail Lamps... they have always been the signature of the GTR and i want them back"

well...... same goes for the Vette. always been the signature.... dont change it! be a leader, not a follower!
