Default C7 Corvette animation from Motor Trends website

Here's a link to an article by Motor trend about a company local to me combining all the spy shots into a animated 3d rendering.

I think the front end and the profile look great. I really hope that's not the finished rear tho. I'm curious as to what the new engine is going to be too.

I'm with the general consensus...I like it all except the rear.

I do believe it's already been announced it will be a variation of the LS3. Updated of course, and maybe DI.

Agreed, a Gen V V8 of likely between 5.5L and 6.4L (probably 6.2L?) with Direct Injection.

I really hope that doesn't come to fruition.

My biggest problem with the rear (aside from the hideous taillights), is that they are passing camaro features up to the corvette.
What? That... doesn't even make sense...

I don't see GM doing that.

Gm looks like they are trying to keep the tail lights similar on their cars now. Its pretty close to the malibu too.

Looks awesome and I even don't mind the rear (the *** end of the c5 and c6 were their weak points as well so nothing new to me).

The gay *** ******* LED bars in the headlights are dogshit though. They look like **** on Audis and every other car with them too. Not sure why they are a "thing" now anyway.

I really despise the way this car looks. IMO the C6 looks much more refined. I really like the rear end of the c5 and c6. Wheres the puking emote. I need it right now...

Looks like those mongrel dogs one sees at the pound-a little bit of everything.
