I just admire the look from behind. There's just something about it especially when you're following one, the sweet curves, low to the ground, wide tires, and the word corvette. Wonder what people say when they're behind one. Would love a chrome bumper though.

Eyes like a Hawk TT Mine were like that a couple years ago until a guy at a Vette show pointed it out to me, I got home and put them in correctly, took about 15 minutes.
