I don't feel the taillights either, but have to see the car in person. My mustang lease is up in 2014! Maybe time to go back to the vette again.

When it comes to the vette, GM is cheeky and secretive. Don't be surprised when it looks a lot different than everyone is guessing.

I am looking forward to it!

[b1adesofcha0s]

I am, but it's still like 3 weeks away. I'm most interested in how it looks on the exterior and interior. Just hoping it doesn't get those square camaro tail lights.

C7 = the next gen Corvette.

Square tail lights would ruin everything good about that car

I think the last spy shot through one of the videos they keep releasing showed a circle taillight but who knows what they decide in the end.

Why not get the square tail lights? I mean they already went away from pop up headlights and look even more ferrari-esque. Plus the side profile screams GTR to me. It is blocked off almost identical and it doesn't help with the blacked out A-pillars. I am still anxious to see what it looks like at the unveiling. But I still wish they took a queue from SRT with the new Viper and go back to some of the roots of the vette for styling queues. I am not talking retro, just some of the iconic shapes that can only be a vette and work that into the design.

More specifically I don't want it to have the Camaro tail lights from Jalopnik's rendering of it. Those looked terrible.
