The Corvette C3R Stingray is a design by Christian Cyrulewski. The vehicle is based on the current Corvette C6 platform, and features the same drivetrain and chassis components.
The appearance of the C3R Stingray is inspired by the 1969 Corvette Stingray, however enough thought has gone into the C3R's design to ensure the styling is not too heavily influenced by the original design to take away from the character of both cars.
Might it be possible that the General would consider going retro for its next Corvette? It’s worked wonders for the current crop of remade pony cars, with Chevy’s own Camaro being a prime example. Some might argue, though, that the modern ‘Vette has never really strayed from its core ethos of offering big performance for a relatively low price, so perhaps it’s not in dire need of visiting the past for inspiration. On the other hand, its current styling is an evolution of the C4 design and doesn’t bear much resemblance to past classic generations.
