It’s like they cut a 2019 Camaro and a C8 in half and then just spliced them together. I wonder what the opposite would look like? C8 front end and Camaro rear.

I too, really like the look! Front and back has better styling than the C8. Now just add the ZL1 1LE aero package and tell me where to send my deposit.

Isn't that basically what the factory builds now?

I think this was a April Fools deal. However, Id be all over this depending what engine GM drops in it and of course if a manual transmission would be a option.

This looks better than the C8 Corvette. With tweaking the grill just a little to add corvette ques this should have been what the C8 corvette looks like. Definately has an American look.

This is real - at least the rendering is - done by Rostislav Prokop, an incredible freelance 3D designer and animator in the Czech Republic.

Just no! This is the epitome of Corvette envy among the Camaro faithful.

When I first heard what was going on with the new ME design vette, the word sacrilege was what I muttered first... not getting up on my soapbox, just pointing out what side of that fence I’m on. I’ve said it a few times this week, I guess I turned into the old guy at 47 lol.

While I love anything Camaro, I would say - even in wonderland - give me my FE design big a$$ V8. (My 14 year old thought the pics were cool though).
