The entire car looks like any other supercar. If you are not a car guy and one is coming at you, you will have a hard time telling if it is a Corvette or a Lambo or a Ferrari or....etc. But I guess this already started to happen when the C7 came out.

+1 but a beauty none the less. I'd buy one except ooops, no manual. Mustang GT350 it would have to be for me.

well if you like buying new cars, unfortunately you are going to have an issue because manual transmissions will be non-existent in the next several years.

Fit/finish and panel gaps are not my concern when it comes to something this fast and this cheap.

I just can't believe we live in a world where you can buy a mid-engined, 450hp+ sports car for $60k USD. No way do the first ones go for MSRP. These things will sell like hotcakes. Can't wait to see what the z06 looks like.

Has many styling cues from various Ferrari's to the new NSX but the rear is very Cormaroish.
But with the shift in weight with mid engine, I don't image you'll see as many doing brake stands, burn outs & donuts.
