i have seen a few of these, but never with the body kit. the raised hood and wing add something even worse to the whole idea of a vette limo

yeah I saw one years ago in Vette or Fever magazine.It was a white Zr1 but no body kit.I always remember reading that article it said the specs of the car and with all the weight it could still turn a 14.6 in the 1/4.Not bad for a heavy prommobile.I'd rented it for the weekend in a heartbeat.

The horror of it all.

I thought the Hummer/SUV limos were dumb, but this is worse, if for no other reason than the principle of the thing.

Does big to mind the stretch VW "Beetlzine" I wanted to build as a kid, but logic and reason prevailed. Too bad they didn't here.

At least that one has some good engineering into it.. The C4 one looked a lot more piecework... The c5 one is nice (for a c5, and for a limo)
