Default Corvette ZX-1

Not sure if this has been posted before, but I came upon this surfing the net:






Looks interesting. Some parts look great, others a little silly (like the big Corvette lettering in the back and the led lights on the front bumper).

Not all that bad. The blonde looks like she needs something if you know what I'm saying. What a puss face.

As more time goes by, I see more spin-offs. In my opinion, I think the traditional C6 looks just fine without all the extra mods. Maybe flared finders for wide tires and a NACA duct up front, but all that extra lighting is beyond my tastes. JMHO.

Default Well...

To me... the Blonde says it all.. Un-Inspired

Looks like an 8 year old designed it... from a Hot Wheels toy.

Some of that I really like and other parts, not so much.....I could do without all the extra lighting and I think it would be fine....I could do without the sour face on that model too --- why even include her in the picture if she is not going to look happy to be there?....smile or something for heaven's sake!!

Obviously, she is pouting because somebody ruined a perfectly good C6.

I like it but not fond of the front side fender and the cost.

I've seen it before. There is an artical in "Corvette Enthusiant" magazine. It's Coachbuilt, by Karvajal Designs.

What is this crap lately with the little LED lights on the front of cars?
First Audi, then MB....is guess it's a "style" like any other, but it has negative appeal for me.

I saw this car in Atlantic City earlier this year.

IMO it looks even worse in person.

I like the front and sides, but not the rear. That chic reminds me of a damn prune! Pretty stale looking.
