c-5 and c-6 body difference

Like many of you I just cant really get into the looks of the c-6! Many people say they look like a c-5 and a half but I was just over on the "dark side" laughing at their seemingly never ending dead battery posts and then was looking at some pictures of the c-6s posted there to see if I could figure out why I dont like them. I now realize that they [c-6s] look "unfinished"! Like some one was making a clay prototype of the c-5 and after a rough outline just did'nt finish it up and smooth the edges or round them off! thats why they are so sharp edge looking and angular! They just did'nt finish the damn car!

Happy new year! Dave

Yeah the regular coupes and convertibles look unfinished, however the ZO6 and ZR1 are sex machines.

There are plenty of C5 bashing threads over in C6 general. We are entitled to a few anti-C6 posts every now and then

. For the record the C6Z and ZR1 should be omitted from the above profiling. They are almost perfectly accentuated.

In my opinion the C6 is one butt ugly car....looks like they started out with a nice front end and when they got to the rear a different design team took over and never finished...did the GM designers ever look at a MB coupe or a Ferrari and think about why they are so beautiful and command such a high price...??? No they don't have a clue..!!
Heck my buddies at work like the Eclipse better than the design of the C6..BTY the fellow that posted the overlay of the C5/C6 really did an super excellent job...makes me glad I have a C5 not a chopped off C6.
