Default Facebook Fridays: Custom C5 Corvette Nails "Unique"


This custom C5 Corvette fits the criteria for “unique," which is why we chose it as this week’s Facebook Fridays photo.

I wonder who,

Who that could be.

I like pieces of it, but this is the equivalent of going to Autozone and buying every single item on "THAT ISLE" and putting it on your car. We all know that isle.
Maybe a few of these things would of been tasteful, but overdoing it and putting every single item on it just is overkill and makes it look cheap.

That car needs a Yard Sale in order to lighten its load.

I like parts of it but the way it sits, it's overdone.

There should probably be a screening process before you can own a corvette. Some need not apply.........

I'm sure the owner really likes it, but that's just not done to my tastes.

Guess I'm going to be the only one here that likes it. I wouldn't own it, but I like it.

Looks like a cross between a Viper and AMG.

Except AMGs and Vipers both look good. This thing looks like a Honda that got lost and woke up in Tijuana.
