I'd say yes it is. It looks american. It looks like a Corvette. It looks like it's moving on with it's retro look into the future just like other muscles. (Camaro for example). Should be interesting. Headlight position is terrible but the side profile looks promising.

It's a car that's being used in the new Transformers movie.

They're not completely sure what it is yet.

Yes, many of the Corvette guys think it resembles the Manta Ray and I think it does too.

The concept car they're thinking is the alternate look for one of the transformers.
