Besides being ugly, the fit and finish of the kit is horrible. None of the seams line up properly.

...I've seen that car runnin' around during the summer. Hartville is only about 30mi away from me. Doesn't bother me at all because it is a C4, not a C3.

Geez, everybody needs to get over themselves and move on.

It's a salvage title that somebody decided to get creative with.

I applaude them for at least taking the initiative.

(I actually like the projector beam headlights)

Lighten up, Francis, the world doesn't revolve around the NCRS.

Are we going to condemn the movie "Corvette Summer" now, because (heaven forbid), they chopped up a Corvette?

Hey, just so y'all know, I'd bet dimes to dollars that a C4 ZR1 (or even a LT4 CE) is the "next big thing" in 7 years...

Awright...I'll understand that I'll get flamed now...come get me.
