I just can't be OK with this. Sorry. I love both the S7 and the C5. But to merge them into this is just... I don't know.

But it was done pretty well, I'll give it that.

Don't care for it at all. Body lines don't flow IMO.

Honestly, they should have just done a new body kit design instead of copying an S7. Looks like a lot of work went into that conversion.

...doesn't fit..the Saleen is supposed to be super wide and super low. The Saleen shape just doesn't fit the Vette specs...

I agree S7 and a C5 merged into one car is strange. I would hate to drive this and pull up next to a real S7

It needs bigger deeeeep dish wheels and it would look so much better.

Also I think the roof, rear hatch and spoiler area look 80s but other than that it looks very well done, imagine the work into it.

Not that I'd do it or care for it but still
