Love the rear, front needs to be toned down a bit. And lose the see through hood.

Looks closer to what the Sky coupe should look like from the rear...

Very sexy car, though.

It seems like damn near every Bill Mitchell wannabe thinks that they can create the next C3 - except they fail to realize that the C6 already takes that idea about as far as it should go in the 21st century. As a result, the mark is way overshot, as this vehicle demonstrates.

Body looks too busy, as if there are too many themes going on at the same time.

That's more like a corvette c22 than a c7 or c8.

Why does it say "fireblade" on the back hatch if it's suppose to be a zr1?

No thanks, way too busy. I'd take the production version hands-down.

Fireblade is the 'name' of the concept. It is based on the ZR1 hence I said an even sexier ZR1.
