Take the Chevy emblem & the Corvette emblems off the car and you would never guess it's a Corvette from looking at it.

Looks a lot like that Apollo Gumpert or whatever it's called. They did a review on the car once on Top Gear.

It kind of has the feel of a Saleen S7 from the front, but the Vette styling queues are there. Profile doesn't look like a Vette because of the roof, but you can tell what it is. I don't think it looks like a Gumpert.
