The proportions on a children's "Power Wheels" Corvette are more accurate.

I don’t know, that is probably the best paint job I have seen done with a rattle can!

Looks like they got it wet, and it shrank.

It reminds me of the old Palmer Plastics scale models of the C2, where the proportions and details were so far off that you had to laugh.

Well, that and the horrible proportions.
Looks like something Herman Munster would have raced around on The Munster's, with the video sped up to make it appear he is screaming home to 1313 Mockingbird Lane.

I like it more than the Miata based C2 kit car, & i might possiby like it slightly less than the C6 based kit car, which unfortunately ruins a perfectly good & nice looking C6.

Looking at this car is like I have the "beer goggles" on. Everything is just a little off!

It's interesting that you can take the basic design elements of one of the great automotive designs of all time, change it slightly and the car looks like crap. I wonder what an early XKE or a 67 275 GTB/4 would look like recreated by this company.
