The new SS, Blue Devil, now ZR1 Corvette showed up uncovered at Laguna Seca and was photographed.

600hp ok, but I was hoping for a little more in the looks department. I still prefer the Ron Fellows Corvette over this one, even with the extra hp.

How about a real wing or some of those rear air baffels. The hood is, I'm sorry ugly.

The black stickers spoil it abit too much I think, so I still prefere the Z06 in looks. 600hp is insane, it must fly.

It wasnt uncovered, and the car was never claiming or claimed to be a "new model" - it is just a new option.

The hood is , I'm sorry, still covered ;)

It is rumoured to be what I wanted to do years aog - have a clear plexiglass panel ;)

I think it looks good. I like the black roof, but the black rear spoiler and side panels in the front should be yellow IMO. :D

Jeez - you guys really dont read. ;)

The "black covers" are COVERS covering the actual bits and pieces that ar estill being COVERED and not shown to the public.

The car is still UNDER COVER.. :)

It is also not a new model Corvette, just a new option package of the C6.

All I want to see on anything related to the corvettes body change is the deletion of those Fugly and cheap looking headlights!

Plexi would be cool, very pimpish. Wonder how that would look in person?

Even without reading I would think that it would be clearly obvious that those bits are minor camo, but I guess not.

I thought it would have also been obvious that this is nothing more than a suped up C6, not a new car, but I guess not.

This definitive version looks almost identical to the covered prototypes that I've seen in pictures :D

I prefer the Z06

Keep on guessing.

You didn't really think those black bits and that hood were final, did you?
:D

Besides, my post wasn't really directed at you, but all of the Corvette haters that talk bad about the car even when it handily beats the cars they adore.

when i saw those black parts my first thought was "what are they hiding?" it's pretty obvious that this isn't going to be the final version in the looks departement ;)

what really quizzed me is why the car looks so incredibly short on those photos.. .everytime i see pictures of other corvettes or see them in real, they give me the impression of being way longer than that... weird
