I thought Aston Martin when I saw the front. Looks awesome in the back though.

I think the cover is deceiving you guys into the aston martin look. Looks pretty tall though and when did they let big al test drive non-production vettes?

Yea you're right. The cover gives it that mouth thingy like an Aston Martin.

why in hell are they driving it in the snow? Do they really need to test it in the snow? I don't think anyone in their right mind would take their zr1 out in rain, let alone snow.

To me it looks like a rehash of the C6. If your going to come up with the replacement for the C6, then redesign the entire body with a look that says WOOOW right out of the box. I think the Ford GT was a very sexy design, take a look at any Lambo, McClaren or any Italian sports and they all look like a jet fighter. They seem to make changes in small steps so as to not alienate the past owners, but love it or hate it, I think the Vet in the Transformers was awesome.

I dont think it should be changed one bit...
The C6 is as sexy as I think it can be. Car is just down right goregous & driving it is just awesome. Keep the C6 design & F' the c7

I probably would have said that about the stingray back in like '63 if i was alive back then. Things always get better, as for the c7 Ill wait and see.. its too soon to tell with all that body covered up.

Jalopnik's renderings are 95% accurate. The renderings are of a ZR1 model, not the base model, so expect changes.
Cars are tested everywhere, in every condition, as hard as one can drive a car. That's what happens when you have a new car. Camaro was tested on just about every single continent with a paved road. Same for the new 911, and for any high-brow car. ****, even the new Malibu was put to the extremes.
And if you are trying to pull a design based on a heavily camo'ed car with NON production headlights, well you guys have at it.
