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.

Body panel fit on this one is pretty bad too.

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)
