A person that shops for a ferrari or lambo will NEVER buy a vette b/c its under the gm umbrella...the same insignia as a sonic. What they hope to do is possible pull some market share away from the sl550 or bmw-z roadster group (a stock vette vers a z roadster or grandsport vrs an sl550). With a hot design they may be able to make more buyers stray..they did it w/the c4, c5 and furthermore w/the c6 for more of everyday usage type vehicle. Its all in a manufacturers nature to pull an already established design and work off that....a hyundai genesis couple looks very similar to a g35/37. Making it look like an aston martin or lfa isn't a horrible thing to do, just have to do it the right way...i hope they succeed.
