Default Help!

I beg of you, help me me re-gain respectability and become part of the "Corvette lifestyle".

I'd rather own a C4 than have to live with this!

This is all have to work with, but there's more, so much more. Just get a gun and shoot me now, please!

So sorry to have to expose my C5 brothers to this, but I'm desperate!

Ask if you dare. I have more pics of this monstrosity.

I'm confused. is this your car or are just making fun of somebody else's car? If it is your car, what were you thinking? If it is somebody else's car what do you care?

Okay, it's not my cup of tea, but just some decent wheels would be a big improvement.

It is someone else's car and yes, he is making fun of the car and the owner.

Seriously whining about this car? It doesn't look that bad to me, new wheels and rid the spoiler you have a pretty nice car. Some folks will like the wheels and spoiler. This is a put on right? There are cars posted here that look like a pimp got ahold of it. Pimp and Corvette don't mix.
