Various auto blogs including Jalopnik and Corvette Blogger are reporting that a new version of the Corvette Stingray concept was sighted in Beverly Hills California with pictures to back it up. There are some more subtle differences than just being a convertible, though – the hood is different, with dual openings in the front, there are no LED vertical headlights. There are also different wheels and a different front grille.
It is possible that this has nothing to do with Transformers 3 and is just someone’s own customized Corvette, in which case, we congratulate the owner on having a cool ride. But with Transformers 3 in production, this could be a teasing first look at the return of Sideswipe and his new upgrade to go alongside the newly convertible Bumblebee. So for now, file this under “rumors” and watch this space for more information!
