This really is what the new C7 is going to look like, so count me in... (Pending it being SENSIBLE money of course).

Hardly revealed Martin. They are mock-ups from Jalopnik.

What do you think constitutes a 'sensible' price for a sports car with a 500bhp entry model?
REVEALED = Attention grabbing Headlines dear chap!!

RHD >£100k, pending big steps in improvement to interior build fit and finish. LHD ? - to sell in numbers over here? <£70k, which with the current exchange rate, it ain't gonna happen. A great shame because that's the only way I would step back into a new Vette and more so give a real alternative to the Porker, fast Audi & BMW brigade, let alone used Ferrari, Masser., etc.

In 1998 a BMW M3 cost the same as a Vette and and that was about 2/3rds the price of a 911.

2012 - M3 - £55k
2012 - 911 - £72k

If any Vettes are actually going to get sold in UK this looks like the target zone. Roughly the same price range as Lotus Evora.
+1

(Rare that we actually agree on something Steve. Must be the new year....!)

Doh! Why am I in the motor-trade again?
Because you're not daft and make far more money in the motor trade than being a rocket scientist....

I have posted this before but to my eyes, it looks like a GTR and I don't like the looks of the GTR. However, I'll reserve judgement for the real thing.
Side view (towards rear) I can see that too. The rest no. Priced pretty much the same too accept the wheel is on the correct side for UK.

Ahem!
You'll get there sooner than you think "young man". The years speed by rather rappido after 50.

!!!!! I did try and see the likeness but failed too. It certainly has GTR overtones though.
