Looks like it was designed by who ever penned the Cien.

I like it so far but the rims need to be far more modern/aggressive.

It´s OK for a movie car.

I understand why they did that "bumper wrapping the bodywork" feature (Stingray...) but it´s old. Already seen in the Citroën GT concept. The top view is marvelously retro.

I think it's pretty ok. I will be seeing it in person next weekend, so that will be cool too. I also just imagine this bringing in 6 or 7 figures at Barrett-Jackson in like 25 years.

GM has several good 6 cylinder engines so I keep hoping they keep the vette as a v8 and introduce a lower powered 6 cylinder model called the Stingray. Unfortunately I don't see this design working for either version as the aero package is a mess and the car just seems huge. I think someone should buy an Aston Martin and insist the vette designers look at it every day. I do like the split rear window though.

It looks a lot like the batmobile to me.
I can't really take this design seriously.

looks unusual, could probably pass it off as a different car..

I don't like it either. Chances are, we won't see it on the road anyway. So I don't care.

I'm generally not a fan of large break air intakes (I think they're awful on the Aston One-77), but I don't mind them too much on this car, in fact I'd go as far as to say I like it. However, inevitably it will be another 'Vette with supercar looks and performance that will no doubt have a Chevy Colbalt interior.

I agree that it does have similarities to the Cien. Especially in that first set of pics and the 5th pic over. It just reminds of the Cien with it's sharp lines and lights etc. Futuristic looking!

It looks great from the side.. Really Corvette-ish. But in the first few pics it does look like a Batman car. Looking at those pics, I can't help but picturing a large thrust nozel coming out the back, and seeing the flames shooting out.
