Ohhh dang! I do know a family who would really love that BEAST!

All it needs is 427 (LS7) with a Procharger to be a family grocery getter, holiday road vehicle - pretty cool if you ask me

Thanks,Matt

When you criticize this car, remember that it harkens back to the Corvette Nomad concept car that GM unveiled in 1954. There has always been a station-wagon lurking under the skin of the Corvette.

If you have to have a wagon/suv type- that would be the one I want. I think it looks cool

I don't care for it. I also don't care how well it is done; it just is not my cup of tea. It reminds me of the Dodge Magnum, and I never liked that car. In fact it needs to be added to the list of 50 ugliest cars.

Talk about trunk spaceand if I needed it I would drive it. Hell if Dodge can do it with the sister of the Charger (Magnum) then why not Corvette. They even slapped a Hemi in the damn thing and tell how popular that car is.

I'd tell him next time he does a chop, to at least fix the trees above the roof.

Actually pretty cool and would be fairly easy to do! Find a old FRC and get the top, should unbolt pretty easy. Remove the trunk lid mount the FRC top over theold trunk space with some cutting and fitting extend the top to the windshield and bingo! You could even make it removeable. and interchangeable.

Pretty cool idea!
