I don't like the way it looks (2007 Callaway C16)

I don't like the single tail lights, I don't like the porsche egg yolk headlights and I don't like the aston martin front grill.

I think it's horrible that Callaway made it look so much like the competition... Porsche and Astin Martin... if the Corvette was going to get styling cues from any car - those are the worst possible Makes - simply because they're Rivals...
