In 2006, he noticed that an image of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2006/04/24/cadillac-peak-on-60-minutes-turns-out-to-be-next-cts/">Bob Lutz lifting the veil</a> on one corner of the yet-to-be-released 2008 Cadillac CTS could be easily manipulated in Photoshop to <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2006/12/27/introducing-the-2008-cadillac-cts-courtesy-of-photoshop/">reveal the car's entire front end</a>. GM recently gave us a similar peek of the production Chevy Volt on a segment that <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/11/inside-the-volt-in-video/">aired on ABC News</a>, and Michael C has once again used Photoshop to give us a very clear view of the production Volt's front end. <br /><br />Yesterday, of course, we got our fill of the production Chevy Volt when <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/28/reader-spy-chevy-volt-caught-from-the-beltline-up/">video of it on the set of <em>Transformers 2: Revenge</em></a> of the Fallen hit the web and a spy shot of the car's <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/28/spy-shot-chevy-volt-interior-maybe/">iPod-like interior</a> surfaced. While screen grabs from that video showed us an overall view of the Volt from a distance, this is the first time we have an idea of what the car looks like from point blank range. The front end is ultra slippery, a far cry from the concept's unaerodynamic face, but the general look is similar. We're not too far off from GM's official reveal of the production Volt, which could happen as soon as the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/Paris-Motor-Show/">Paris Motor Show</a> in October. Check out a higher-res version by clicking the pic above, along with all the images we've collected of the production Chevy Volt so far. <em>Thanks for the pic, Michael!</em><br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/production-chevy-volt/">Production Chevy Volt</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/production-chevy-volt/1006409/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/voltfrontxg7_thumbnail.jp g" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/production-chevy-volt/1005426/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/volt-t2-1280_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/production-chevy-volt/1005417/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/005_voltspyprod_thumbnail .jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/production-chevy-volt/1005416/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/003_voltspyprod_thumbnail .jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/production-chevy-volt/1005415/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/001_voltspyprod_thumbnail .jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/29/photoshop-voodoo-gives-close-up-view-of-chevy-volt/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/forward/1299161/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/29/photoshop-voodoo-gives-close-up-view-of-chevy-volt/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p><hr />
