'14 C7 spy shots, quick update
Here's a pic of the C7 wearing C6 clothing.
Notice the longer wheelbase. The C7 is going to have a longer hood than the C6. It's going to have a similar axle to dash ratio to the Viper. Who doesn't love the looks of the Viper??? GM is going after the old Viper customers for sure.
What's up with the two dummy exhaust tips? Very odd. The C7 looks a little narrower too.
Also, it is confirmed that the C7 and the 6th Gen Camaro will get a 7 speed manual transmission.

Whats funny is i dont think anyone has caught the fact that the Gran sport above is not the same car...one is Vert one is hard top. With that being said why do two different cars have the same paint and wheels? Highly doubt it just happens to be two different cars with the same set up...as the the guy posted states it very well could be a c7 wearing c6 body's.
Im other words looks to me like they put two different body's on the same chasis set up.

All the OEMs test just like you said. New chassis / drivetrain / electrics / etc wrapped in old panels.
I wonder if the 7 spd is just a new tremec that will bolt up to c5 / c6s. Hmmmm....

U do know that its just a Chassis/Engine Test car wearing C6 skins right?
I hope it looks more Viperish when its in C7 skin cause to me the Vette didnt really stand out, the upper ones like the GS/Z06/Zr1 looked better/meaner but still didnt look exotic enough for me (but I love to have one of those) So im on the edge of my seat waiting for the unveil on the C7

Oh that is a real classy vehicle your driving there, Mr. Trans Am. Your statement is the eqiuvalent of a Pontiac Aztek driver calling an Escalade ugly, in other words meaningless nonsense.
