    The corvette looks better with the round taillights.

    I like the look of the GS but I don't know what's going on with the IS.

    Corvette back def looks like a camaro.

    Infiniti's previous naming was worse. G, M, FX, JX, EX...good grief..

    Yeah, I think it's been simplified, but a lot of the "enthusiasts" say a name like "G37" was more descriptive since it told you about engine displacement. All I have to say is "uh... ok". It's so much simpler now that all cars are Q's and all SUV's are QX's. I'm sure it'll change again soon enough.

    **EDIT** : took out pic that was already posted - my bad.

    There won't be one. It's now a 4 series and it's already been unveiled for the most part. My next car is probably going to the be the Q50.

    Edit: Rear and interior pictures spoilered for size. These are going to sell like hotcakes.

    BMW looks like it copied the Jaguar XJL's with the alcantara roof line but the interior is a major upgrade. Ready to see about 10,000 on the streets in Midtown and Washington when they hit the lots.

    That pop up screen irritating as hell too. That's what kept from buying the SR8 although I loved it.

    I prefer the Viper over the Vette too but, man, both are terrific and finally give the US something comparable to European supercars. I can't wait to see both in Top Gear.

    Corvettes are daily drivers. Viper, it's something else entirely. It's a toy not a car. Nothing wrong with that, just a different class.

    agreed.

    IMO, while the the body style is nice, it looks overall cheaper. Although, this could just be my subconscious comparing it to the Camaro. And, it doesn't really look much like a Stingray to me at all.

    Any McLaren P1 fans? This one is jaw dropping. It's like the better looking version of audi r8

    Love me some viper although an asian guy like me would look funny in a american sports car. Now that's traditional styling with a touch of modern day design
