Yup, I prefer the straight lines and angles too. It's why I've always preferred the C4 and C6 'Vettes to the blobby C5.

Jalopnik just received a letter from Omega Corporation's representation at law firm Schafer & Weiner (Omega was the video's original creators and releaser's):
Content Removal Demand
Matt and Nick:
Omega Tool Corp. ("Omega") has retained Schafer and Weiner, PLLC ("S&W") to enforce its rights related to the video and images that were wrongfully and illegally posted to your website (the "Illegal Content"). Through this letter, Omega formally demands that you immediately remove the Images from your website and permanently disable all access to the Illegal Content.
Omega is a corporation that manufactures molds and tools primarily for use in the automotive industry. The molds manufactured by Omega are then used to produce various parts used in the production of vehicles.
The Illegal Content includes a video that was wrongfully and illegally posted to the internet by an unrelated and unauthorized third-party and images from the video. The Images show the mold design and the mold and that Omega manufactured (the "Mold") to produce a front bumper for a General Motors Company prototype (the "Part"). More specifically, the Images also show what the Mold looks like, how it is used to manufacture the Part, and what the Part looks like. The Images disclose the trade secrets and the intellectual property of both Omega and General Motors Company. Continued access to the Images and their content will cause extensive harm to Omega, potentially resulting in millions of dollars in damages.
Posting the Illegal Content violates the Uniform Trade Secret Act ("UTSA") by misappropriating Omega's trade secrets. Specifically, your disclosure of the Illegal Content on your website is illegal because you disclosed the Images without the express or implied consent of Omega and, at the time of disclosure, you knew or had reason to know that your knowledge and/or access to the Images was derived from or through a person who had utilized improper means to acquire it. Simply put, it is well-known in the industry, including automotive publications such as Jalopnik, that the information the Images contain is closely guarded proprietary information, and not consensually available to the public.
The Illegal Content must be immediately removed and all access to the Images must be permanently disabled. If you fail or refuse to remove the Illegal Content, Omega will pursue all available remedies, including but not limited to legal action. If Omega is forced to take legal action, Omega will ask the Court to order you to pay Omega's attorneys' fees and punitive damages, in addition to any damages that Omega has suffered.
Contact me at XXX-XXXX-XXX or e-mail me at XXXXXX@schaferandweiner.com as soon as possible to discuss the steps you will take to remove and disable the Illegal Content. I expect to hear from you within twenty-four (24) hours of receiving this demand.
Govern yourself accordingly,
Tracey XXXXXX
Which Jalopnik is respectfully replying with a huge no
Seem's like confirmation to me that the video and the new design of the Corvette is legit.

How is it illegal content when they released the video themselves and only after it was noticed by someone on Corvette site that it was not the C6, they remove the video?
That is definitive proof that it's the C7 in the video.

Looks like a C6 with Nissan GT-R detailing to me.
Looks like a GT-R + a Camaro
Actually that drawing just looks like a C6 to me.

I can see some elements from the Ferrari 599 as well, especially from the side.

But the C5 is more straight and angular than the C6. From the side, the front and the back.

Well this was on Jalopnik, it is a graphic design video.
The Makers have compiled all of the concept sketches, leaks, etc
What are your thoughts on it?
I think it looks like the new Viper..

Not a fan. And I really dislike the new Camaro-esque taillights. The 4 round ones were absolutely perfect and has been for the past 5 generations, so why get rid of them?

C4 had square like taillights for many model years. Regardless, I think it's an important design cue.

LED/Rope lights should be banned from all auto design studios. And I wish I knew why they went with a GT-R roofline. Looks like a 2+2 now. Tail lights have already been mentioned.
Looks like Chevy finally found a way to ruin the only good thing going for them.

Yup, that's like totally hideous. They should've gone for the retro thing and reintroduce the C3-like chassis..

With all of these truly hideous 'artist interpretations' floating around, GM is going to have to reveal the actual car soon I would think, before people start making judgement on something they don't actually know about yet.

Is this a sick joke? Well atleast I can set my sights on owning a C6 Z06 in the future because I won't be touching a C7 if it looks anything at all like this. Stay away from any ugly Camaro features GM. That is hideous.
