That thing is pretty sweet. It is one of the autobots in the new transformers 2 movie.

Its a shame that GM can build a car like that with such beautiful lines and curves. Some of the best, and most distinctive styling cues that were ever on a Corvette. A blending of all those, in one car. A sports car so uniquely American. NA they wont build it, too many people like it. So the bean counters at GM will have to say "too expensive". We cant afford to build a car like that. Were about broke as it is. Im glad that Im old enough to remember the muscle car years and grew up in that period of automotive history. When it was ok to be politically incorrect, Im not a politician. And I say that with pride, considering the the track record of some of those elected officials on the hill.

I don't like it. I love the 64 split and such, but this reminds me of my dad's 82 vette. I like the direction the new vette (09) took, and I think they need to build on that.

ah hmm you mean the 63 split.

very radical car that I think could work as a true super car. Yes, more super car than the ZR1. The sting ray emblem is hokey so that'll have to be scrapped. I can't wait to see Transformers 2 and this car is one of the reasons.

It's a show car called the Corvette Centennial as used in the Transformers movie. Not bad looking, but I'm not so sure it's anything other than a show car.

If that was the next gen Vette I'm sure it would be a turbo Ecotech 4 cyl with maybe some electrical boost..........:willy: :willy: :willy:

I'd like to see a number of the styling cues make it to the C7 production car :yes: .
