What car do you think this is?

Yes, I am aware its resembles a Holden ute, but its really not unless someone went crazy with it and half a c7.


Not sure if this has already been posted here though.
Apparently spy shots of a supposed "mid-engine" corvette.
If you look at the pic straight down, the dash is a match, vents and all to current c7.

What are your thoughts/opinions?
(obviously if it is, the ute body is to throw people off, or try to.)

Mid-engine prototype that's been on and off again for years. The last ZR1 sold many people inside GM that they need to keep going on performance aspect of the Corvette. They also see how cars like the R8, NSX, and even the Ford GT to a certain aspect, has elevated the brand.

Question is, what emblem does this car wear, if it gets the final green light?

Perhaps it'll be the 2017 Pontiac Firebird

That is not a prototype. That is a test mule. It's a Ute that has been bastardized to test parts.
