I faulted the 2013 Corvette with too much Camaro styling DNA . . . now it appears that Corvette styling is coming over in that photo. Where is that design from?

Some part of the rear end reminds me of a BMW.

I think whoever created this rendering just grafted a chevy cruze rear end



And Panamera side vent



and a 370z headlight



I'm missing a few elements in it that I can't put my finger on. I know that is all renderings are, but IMO this is someone who was tasked with making a generic sportscar and then picking which one later.

The side view aft of the hood screams "Audi A5" (in a good way) to me.

Roll that baby out! I like the caricature version, a new model could lead to some old model discounts.
