Ok, I admit that I am a C6 junkie now! This is a neat picture.

This drawing makes it look like the vert will still have the waterfall like the C5's.

What's the deal with the stearing wheeling being on the right side?

I still think he's made it waaaayyyy too curvy and blobbish. I believe the C6 will have a great looking balance of sweepinging curves with pronounced creases and with visisble starts and ends to the curves.
I think people don't realize this and keep making concepts that look like a C5 with fixed headlights. I don't consider this example to be that good at all.
Anyway, CFOUR, I have a couple more questions. . .
How close are these headlights above to the real thing? will the inside of the headlamp cluster be black (dark gray) plastic colored or will they be body colored.
I noticed a few VERY interesting things on the Jim Dunne photos, specifically on the side/rear 3-quarter view shot:
-The B-pillar camouflage seems to be a little off. . .
I can see a little bit of white showing underneath those covers at the very bottom. It doesn't seem to be part of the shoulder line, it seems to be an actual B-pillar!
-What could they be hiding?
-Am I the first to notice this?
-There has to be SOMETHING going on with the forward greenhouse, Why would there be so much covering, what is underneath that damn plastic???

The reason it looks C5-ish is because the C6 is C5-ish. If you look at the spy photos, it hardly shows some "dramatic" changes compared to the C5.

I tried matching up his picture with the spy photos, and frankly (with the exception of what can't be seen in the spy photos) his drawing is spot-on.

The C6 will look like a C5 with a re-skin, everyone knows this. So... why do you expect some dramatic looking car?

I sent Patrick an e-mail on that!

He said "I should not drink and draw".

Don't laugh this photo is VERY close to the real thing, BUT the body is to "Soft" looking C6 has harder more pronounced edges and front fenders as seen in spy photos. Folks Listen up the front end shape (fenders hood and side scoops) ARE the real thing on the spy shots. Stop trying to change it thats where everyone keeps going wrong!

EXACTLY!!! and it seems to me that nobody grasps the concept of the C6 having more exaggerated design cues than the C5.
EXAGGERATED Means it stands out more and is clearly stating it's presence!!! :duh ;help

I'm Not saying that it is going to be totally exotic and dramatic looking, I KNOW that it will NOT look like a sharpened up C5.
All the details aren't presented in this rendering and many parts won't be that close to the C5, and this is where people are going wrong. There is VISIBLE SEPERATION between the FENDERS and the SHOULDER LINE from all angles.
