Default The New 'Sport' Edition Corvette

I know it's not a C1/2 but I thought you folks would like to see this. Spied in a parking lot yesterday. Everything was 'stick on' and not functional.

A testimony to bad taste..... The emblems should say "Dork" instead of "Sport"...

Ouch! I have to lay down now and hope when I pass down my car it doesn't end up like that.

Good Grief! Legally, I fully support a person's right to do what they want to, to their own property. Morally, that's just plain wrong!

Another example of double-sided tape use gone awry.

Thank God.
Now get the glue remover and we're going to need plenty of it too.
Who's responsible for this?

I bet the owner wears numerous pieces of gold Corvette jewelry.

Would that be gold-plated jewelry?

The problem is that the owner probably saw MasterDave taking pictures of his car and was thinking, "Man he really digs my car, he knows a cool car when he sees it!!"

You beat me to it, although I was going to say: "Impossible to make the C5 body look any worse than it already is".

Is that a leaf or a turd on the hood between the drivers headlight and the center stripe?
