Question mystery car in background of C6 'Vette show?

During parts of the C6 'Vette show last week, where Tom Peters was talking while sitting there was a silver car (coupe looking) in the background to his right. I've looked at it several times with the DVR paused, but it's a pretty fuzzy picture. From what I could see, I didn't recognize it from what looked like the headlights and the way the lights were hitting it it looked like it had a rather sharp crease along the sides, kinda like the 2nd gens (but not saying anything!).

Does anyone here recognize it or know what it is?

I've been meaning to re-watch that on the video tape...

I remember the car you are referring to, and my first impression was that it was the Saturn Curve, but it was so hard to see, and I didnt pause the tape (only watched it "live" so far) so it's hard to tell...

But, ya, I'm curious too... I also wanted to look for other things in the background that might have slipped through editing.

I watched for the 'slip throughs' too. I'll look at it again and see if I see the Saturn Curve in it. It could be it. You'd think being unemployed I would've watched it enough by now to know exactly what it is or isn't

Here's a link to an image of the car.

Also interesting someone brought up that the rear of the cobalt was shown about 1-1/2 years ago in another publicity photo, but no one guessed what it was.

C6 Vette Show? You mean that 3 hour documentary on the Ford GT, C6 Corvette, and '05 Mustang on TLC last weekend?

All concepts have big wheels

It actually looks like a Cobalt shape to me. How can you tell its a sedan??
