Here's my design. I couldn't think of a good name (one that doesn't coorespond to something else ex: cougar is both a car AND an animal, so the name sucks; Corvette is pretty distinctive, it means something else I think, but it dominates the name/term so that's good.)
Since my name is made up, I thought it would work.
I would say this baby would of course be a 2 seater on the Kappa chassis, coupe only, turbo or super charged V6 from the Grand Prix, and would definitely NOT have huge 18 inch wheels. Rough ride? Hard to get into? Who cares! This would be Chevy's Lotus Elise . Lightweight, distinctive styling, low volume, $25,000, 260 hp. Sounds like a dream to me .


I didn't use a reference pic when drawing it (because I was at work), but I think it is kappa size...

looks like the Sting ray propossed for Chevy but more on the wild side..

I would say now youre making sense. Miami Vice Ferrari front end and 63 Vette tail? Nice Feels good to be inspiring...

Thanks . It's rare that I post a concept idea on here and get a compliment lol. Camaro people are ruthless and tell it like it is , I just have unpopular taste usually it seems...

Its extreemly hard to come up with something new. I did a model of a concept Camaro in a contest based on the 69 mixed with some of the taperings of a 4th gen in the front. When I posted the front before I finished the car a few people were nice but most slamed it. When I had the whole car a few people were telling me to finish the details because they wanted to vote for it, still a few told me it sucked. Its easy to critize someone elses rendering but its harder to come up with one people like. You gotta remember the critisim gets harder when youre talking one theyd actually spend money on.

M/T is saying there is a rumor of a V6 Kappa Chevy Stingray. Dont know what the Saab V6 turbo puts out but interesting idea.

Brangeta

Does anyone have a picture of this Kappa Stingray? I haven't seen it, and it sounds interesting.

Remember this is M/T's rendition not GM's.

Brangeta

It doesn't look too bad, but seems to be overkill --it looks too much like the Solstice. Not really different enough to get much response.

I don't know how most people feel, obviously, but I think that Chevy could sell at least 5,000 of what I drew a year . I'd love having a tiny Lotus-like car with exotic wedge styling .

Chevy needs to stop trying to steal Pontiac's customers
