I'm with 'ya and while I feel the C5 is the cleanest looking of the 'all plastic' generations it still has a bit of a 'ducks ***' IMO. But in the world of timeless beauty and Corvettes there is but one generation....... C2

C5 looks tiny compared to so many other cars. Especially Camaro / Mustang. Why are those so flippin huge?

The C5 still holds it's own looks wise but yes, it does have the "classic" look now compared to modern.

it is insanely clean. its a guy at my works toy, only drives it on fridays.. and what makes it even more badass, is that his grandma is the original owner and passed it down to him. he put an ls1 in it and autocrosses it. its a badass machine.
