This is what happens when an Italian design firm gets its hands on a new (at the time) 1984 Corvette. Check out this exotic take on an American classic inside.

I hated this thing when it first came out, and I feel it has not aged well. I am a Bertone fan but not of this mess!!!

Not the most original thought. Back in the 60's that basic shape was already thought of. There were numerous other examples of that basic design
