Neet Pic. Very interesting to see how from the animation, the C6 is lower in the front and obviously shorter as we've seen..but when it switches back to the C5 the front is higher and rear is higher but longer so it evens out.
I think the C6 is cool in it's own way, but I still liket the C5 better.

Thanks for posting. I've seen it before, but its a nice reminder of how (IMHO) much better desinged the C5 is than the C6. Keep the speed, give me my Big Butt.

2023 C5 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
I remember that one from when the C6 first came out. Cool animation
I still can't help thinking that the C5 looks like the newer design even after nearly 3 years.

Remember, they are both corvettes, and are nice looking. I prefer the c5 as well because of the smooth lines. The c6 in my opinion, has a more chisled chopped design. I did not like it at first, but I like them now. Also, I think most of us on the c5 forum invested alot of money/modifications/car payments into the c5 so that may also add to a more negative response towards the c6. Having said that, I prefer the c5 design but would like c6 performance.
