After being spied numerous time on set, Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen star 'Sideswipe' makes his official debut at the Chigago Auto Show as the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Concept.

The Corvette Stingray Concept is heavily influenced by the original Corvette Stingray race car of 1959 as well as borrowing inspiration from other Corvette models over the years. GM remains coy about the role the Stingray Concept will play in the styling direction of future 'Vettes.

"SIDESWIPE represents an exercise in exploration for the Corvette," said Ed Welburn, vice president of GM Global Design. "By giving my creative team the freedom to design no-holds-barred vision concepts, it helps them push boundaries and look at projects from different perspectives."

Joining Sideswipe on the GM stand at Chigago will be Jolt, played by the Chevrolet Volt as well as Skids and Mudflap, the Chevrolet Beat and Trax.
