Official as in officially released by GM? I'd say that's more of a spy pic than an official pic

GM released that picture, but it's not very helpful (we've seen better views already).

Well, i think this is interesting...

-GM is continuing to throw the bait that is working...


A few notes about the car

1. The yellow running lights are part of the camo. Not to say that the C6 won't have yellow running lights, but they are not square
2. The oval air opening in the front is misleading. C6 is most likely bottom breather for aerodynamic properties, but the camo is made so it looks like there is a hole in the front.
3. Look at the rear tire width, OH MY!

Now that I have looked at it a few times, it reminds me way to much of an NSX. Only a few more months till the autoshow, then we will know for sure.

If you look closely at the top of the door, it overhangs a bit, maybe the new C6 will have scissor doors

Yeah, those tires look huge. I like the roof treatment and the rocker panel styling. I would like to have a Corvette that has a few more styling elements than the C5.

I want one but lets see... I finish college in 4 years, add 2 years of grad school....

Maybe I can get a 2005 model when I graduate for ~$25k.

Detroit auto show.

BTW, sorry but new sources tell me that pic is all wrong, I was hoping for this info because it is way to boring.
