I hate it. They made it not pretty. Corvettes should be pretty.

Nothing wrong here.

Last time I checked.

You're just mad because its not an Impala.

It would be awesome on an Impala, but a Corvette??? What in the hell were they thinking?!

I don't know, but I do know how they were thinking: like me.

Yeah, but that's for muscle cars, which a Corvette isn't*.

*Depending on your definition of muscle car.

I'd call it a muscle car. The newer ones are kinda supercar/muscle car hybrids, like the Dodge Vipers.

I don't call Corvettes or Vipers muscle cars. They're sports cars and supercars, respectively. Corvette is too handling-oriented, and the Viper is sort of a hybrid between muscle/supercar.

Fine with me. I just consider them at least half muscle. 👍

I see it more 75/25 supercar/muscle car for the Viper, and 90/10 for modern vettes.

 

[Tornado]

Yup.

There was various styles. These, plus Beef's.

In some respects the SVT Cobras of the SN-95 is like the ultimate sleeper; as the fewer scoops are carved into the hood and flanks, and the less the wheels and spoiler look like crappy aftermarket items, the more power it came with from the factory.

This Pinto was spotted at a race shop, receiving a custom built roll cage. This photo was taken about four years ago, at a shop in the San Francisco area. (Not my picture.) I wonder what happened to it?

 

[Slash]

How is that questionable?

 

[Team THRT Drift]

Wrong thread?

Anyway that Corvette above is nice. For a single glance. You know..... see it coming down the road... 'look a Corvette!' and move on with your life.

I would hate living with it though. That hood scoop must get annoying.

Saw this guy at AutoZone the other day

Not as bad as some others, but still very bad.

While searching for a new avatar, I stumbled upon a picture of this

 

[Johnny1996]

If I remember correctly, that was posted here long ago, and it turned out that the rear bumper was removed just for photography purposes. That is, if the lack of the rear bumper is what you're thinking about.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Questionably awesome?

From mecum Monterey. It didn't sell.

 

[Xilor]

@Johnny1996 Its the whole thing. That spoiler is idiotic, and JDM style stickers on a 911 is just wrong. Also if I'm not mistaken its running very wide drag tires?

 

[Johnny1996]

I see road tires, but I do agree that the oversized spoiler and stickers could be at least dialed back.

 

[Tornado]

No.

That's new. Usually they're used for Daytona Coupes.

Pintos were awesome, so were Chevettes, I so want those to be in Gran Turismo.

the 250 GTO is the common body conversion for the S-30 chassis Z (240 260 and 280Z). cars, known as Velo Rossas some well done ones can sell for upwards of 40k

there is one out there that is actually more ferrari than datsun at this point in time, sporting correct engine/ trans and legit interior... the owner tells stories about sneaking into ferrari only concourse shows and laughing at all the fiero kits being turned away
the Daytona Coupe is usually done with the S-130 chassis cars(280ZX)

if anyone is curious here is the kit manufacturer http://www.reactionresearch.com/automotivedetails.htm

in the mid 80s they where actually sued by ferrari for being too accurate and had to modify their molds...

 

[ScottPuss20]

Unbelievable

 

[Zychotic1]

wow... a Vette I wouldn't be cussing every 15 seconds trying to work on...(bowties annoy me)
