How did that guy get those pictures? Do you realize how big of a development this is? This car has been under major wraps for a long time. Im still in awe of how he managed to get those photos.

By the way, how did you find that page? There isnt even a link to it on the website.

what makes anyone think that this is the new vette? Pics posted on a site called Stupid Fast Boats and does anyone think that the next gen vette will be designed in a shop that looks like that? Maybe they are cutting costs?

Chekc out same site, different link.. guy is modding his new (to him) 85 http://www.stupidfastboats.com/vette.htm

When prototypes are developed, much of the creation is secret to even company employees. Read the book "All Corvettes Are Red" and youll begin to understand. Perhaps this was a buck for an early model. Seeing as how the Corvettes body panels are made of fiberglass, it would make sense for GM to use a small boat facility to build a mockup of the new Vette, and not have to worry about other GM employees seeing the car.....

GM is painfully aware that these pics have been leaked. This was posted by a GM big-wig over on the vette forums.
