    Maybe for more cooling capacity for the electrical components if overheating was the issue?

    Or...we don't KNOW anything about the END product, in spite of people looking at "renders" and making declarations.

    We know some things, at this point we know the car exists and is well along in development. We have seen the cad screenshots of the rear suspesion. The basic size is understood. We have reasonable certainty that the base motor will be a evolution of the SBC and that there is a quad cammer in the mix. We are reasonable certain it will be paddle only.

    As to looks, well we can tell as much from the cammo mules as we could from the cammo supra to finished article, in other words the genral shape is understood, the surface and overall detail is not.

    We can also reasonably assume that like all prior generation vettes it will put down great "numbers" and that like prior vettes later iterations will be sigbificantly better honed.

    In my 35 years of following the auto market Ive never seen a new car revealed that didnt look very close to the late stage mules driving around. Never happened that i can recall.

    Why would anyone think this time its different ?

    Because you just know those side intakes cannot be as ugly as they appear. No way. It's impossible. :)

    Kinda like that nasty pimple from our high school days. Sometimes you just have to take another look in the mirror and give it a squeeze. LOL :)
