C5 "Shark" kit, lol
I came across an ad for a "Shark Kit" for a C5, which "seamlessly blends the allure of the classics with the updated technology of the C5"
I dont see anything on this car making it look like a shark?!
Allure from what classic?

I agree the C5 needs a face lift and a fanny lift but this one is not great. The rear has potential but the front is a bagger.
Can I say that?

Destined to be a classic...just like all those Greenwood Corvette Wagon conversions. People really took a shine to those, eh? Is George Barris designing cars again?

The back-end looks much better than the original IMO, but I see nothing classical about it.
