The front overhang on that thing is huge. The whole front end looks too big. View from the back is unflattering.

The Cadillac XLR is built off the same platform and has a much smaller overhang.

I dont like the current ones Brakelights so I hope they fix that, not crazy about the centered exhausts either.

Looks alot like the C5. As long as it still has the same world class performance, compared to other cars in any price bracket, i'll be happy. not that i'm going to buy one, though.

the headlights arent the exact lights on the car. they are covered in the actual spy shot so dont judges the front end completely

Chances are, the drawing is pretty close to accurate.

When Motor Trend and Car & Driver were running sketches of the '97 Vette months in advance (from spy photos and insider information), they were about 98% correct...even including the massive a$$ with quad central tailpipes.

I think it looks alright, but keep in mind that the pic shown at the top is still just an illustration :) I really don't think it looks different enough from the C5...the body shape is pretty much the same.

GMs Design Department needs a serious overhaul.

The new Vipers is not even out yet. The old one looked nothing like the S2000.

Am I wrong or is that just an artist's rendition on the top of the page? I like it, but it does look more similar to the Viper. I really like the Vette Stingrays the best out of every design though.

Umm, the new ones are already out...or very close to be. And it DOES look like an S2000.
