A+ to the color... It's actually nicely done. I Like the pink brake calipers - that might not have been an easy color to come by.

There could be obnoxious fins, or stupid looking tailpipes that mimic that of a Peterbuilt Big Rig..

And there's no woman hotter than one behind the wheel of a 'Vette...

I think it looks great for a woman. Of course I would lose the windshield decal, but that is true of ANY Corvette.

Her car, her money - if she likes the color combination, that's really all that matters.

I like it, I obviously wouldn't do it to mine but it looks better than 100s of cars that I see on here. I wouldn't mind if my girlfriend drove that.

As already stated,, the overall theme is cool for a girl,, Just the back end is a little much. Looks a bit out of place with the rest of the car,,,but maybe with the bra it is balanced out!! Would like to see under hood since they got the Magna Charger!!

That's not even a big deal at all. Worst is when people have aftermarket bumpers, stupid chrome tail light covers and retarded spoilers and people actually think all that crap makes their cars look better

If it was a guy it would be a tad weird but I don't see anything wrong with it.
