Default Best angle to show off the lines of the C5






The rear quarter shot

Love how the lines flow from the back of the car to the front and the sloping nose. I had both my C6Z and my C5 parked next to each other many times and dare I say but I think the C5 looks better.

The C6Z is beautiful in its own way but the graceful flow and lines of the C5 just set it apart.

Let's see your rear quarter shots, post em up!!!

I like the back view - but his one is good too.

I must say - your wheels look really nice. Who supplied them?

Wow, nice vette.

Background is important too. I do not like green grass to show off most cars. The red gets confused in all the green.

You would be better served asking what angle is not flattering to a C5. I've yet to find one.

From down low either back to front or front to back, I think my angle is a little too much but on angle for sure!

Have to agree - there's not a bad angle on this awesome work of art
