It's not that the C6 is ugly, it's just different.

Maybe the C7 will be better. Let's hope so.

From the book All Corvettes Are Red:

-on the shape of the Corvette's rear end -

"one regular visitor had the temerity to stand behind it and compare the wide and rounded end to the hips and buttocks of an old farm woman who'd eaten too much butter."

It's not just my opinion cause I asked my girlfriend and she see's it also….. When I look out the front I see a woman's bare nether regions as seen from laying your heed on her belly and looking down in the direction of her feet. The fenders are the tops of her thighs…….

I love my vette.
