The tail end looks the same as the current gen Corvette. I'm not a big Corvette fan, so I can't tell if there's much difference besides the fixed headlights.

there looks to be more of a rear top overhang... its more negatively slanted backwards... and the tails are early 4th gen looking, [1984-1990]

ok, here's some differences besides the fixed headlights...

1. door handles on the sides of the door (like the 350z) rather than on the door
2. logo in the rear where it used to say "corvette". "corvette" is on the bottom right of the bumper (you can't really see it in the pics though)
3. backup lights are next to the exhaust rather than on the sides of the license plate
4. shorter front and rear overhangs - not by much i guess
5. new side marker turn signals
6. new engine

there's more, that's all i could tell off the top of my head
