I kinda like the look, but I'll bet I wouldn't fit in one very well.

For those that want to do it, I say go for it. I admire the effort, but I don't have the patience nor the money.

I'm not the biggest fan of these either. The above pics are as good as it gets on these kits and I have never seen a single one like it compared to the 10-20 others I have seen more like the normal kits that you see later on in the thread. It is a nice kit but when you see these in person it just seems off and of course way too wide for that body style imho.

I've seen quite a few of these and like most of them. I think the c1 replicas look better than the c2's, especially the coupes.

Nay, I stick with the C5 current and correct design. Don't fool with Mother Nature.

I enjoy looking at it, and respect the resources that went into creating it. That said, I personally wouldn't spend the time and $$ needed to create/own one.

So I'm an appreciative admirer.
