I'd like to see a styling home run from the Corvette team, and the early glimpses of this car look too much like a C6.5, which was itself more of a C5.5. I know it's an icon, but why not push things forward a little?

The C6 panel is light weight, one piece, doesnt leak, easy to remove and install and locks into the rear compartment easy as pie. I love it. Personally, I dont think it detracts from the cars visual appeal.
I also like them not making radical changes as they did from C3 to C4. Porsche changes the 911 slowly through evolution not revolution, I like that.
I happen to think the C6 is a beautifully styled car(Im biased) so I dont want it to change radically.
To each his own.
