The golden age is the age you own!

Well isn't the golden anniversary the 50th, so that would be a 2003

black corvette
Looks to me like the car is the result of an affair between a Chev Avalanche and one of those Dodge Daytona pickups

Its a wide body kit , or pieces of it , from the vender ACI, not a bad look for a track car and based on some reading I've done , actually works for what its intended purpose is, a little much for the street. The black one isnt to my taste, but the two red ones are, course I have some of the aci pieces on my track car , so I'm a bit biased. If its your car and you like it , nothing else matters

This thread has gone well past the 45 day limit. Some threads are better off left riding into the sunset, this one included.

Wow. even you and I agree on something for once
This would have been a good post, if it didnt bash c4's.
I agree, that car is hideous and a disgrace to c4's.
However to infer that c4's are a disgrace to corvettes real ticks me off.

I believe this is the umpteenth time that rolling abortion has made a appearance in C4 General. I don't think our retinas can stand it again.
