> It just seemed weird, considering GM’s level of involvement in Transformers, for them not to have a Corvette in the movie. Now, here it is. It’s not the next Corvette, but it is what we wish the next Corvette would look like — it’s the Stingray Corvette Concept, and it’ll play the character of Sideswipe. Frankly, it was gorgeous when we first saw it at GM’s design center and it’s even more gorgeous now.

> We’ll have more on the rest of the Autobots revealed here in Chicago shortly, but we kinda figured you’d want to see this silver gleaming slab of beautiful first.

> By the way, I just touched it. Now I want one.

what? you dont like the quad rice pipes?

… Truthfully looking at it right now if they kept the same lines, added the ZOH6 front, and toned down the back alittle it might actually not be that bad.

i think u guys are missing the point of this car. im not exactly known for my domestic prowess and i even didnt miss this…

the ass end w/ the exhaust pipes, the lack of a visible A post, fat arches are all ques lifted off the original mako shark–which effectively lead into the 68-82 body style vette.

now the rear window screams 63. yet same time is mako-esse.

do some history research

the back is ugly, but I kinda like the front 3/4 view & direct front shot. It is a concept, they are usually off the wall anyway.

history research not needed to determine that it’s fucking goofy looking.

Agreed. I think the front looks pretty good.

Maybe the design of the back makes better shoulders for the robot? :hsugh:
