The profile (while it will definitely change, think 2 more inches of glass everywhere for headroom sake) is very modern chevrolet (think edgy like the new vette) but the fender flares and arches over the rear wheels all say full time muscle car.

The rear actually looks more like the 67 RS with the 4 red lights than the 69 that they have said its so heavily based on. I think that its for the better, the 67 was cleaner in the back than the 69.

For all who say the tires are too big, this is a concept, right? Figure base model V6 will wear 17's, Z28s 18's, and the SS might have 18, 19, or maybe in back, 20s.

I cant wait to see this thing in person. I bet complaints will melt away once you see it close up. NYIAS is only 3 months away!!!

from the looks of it, the profile will stay pretty much the way it is. Bob Lutz is a very tall man and didn't have any trouble getting out of it on stage.

as far as the rims, Lutz said a production model is more likely to get 18" fronts and 19" rears (i'm assuming he meant the performance models). the base cars will most likely get 17s all the way around.
