Default New Corvette PC Computer

I am currently working on a project to make a computer have the look and feel of a C5 Z06 Corvette. It will have carbon fiber around all of the computers case with has windows on the side and blue lights inside lighting up the motherboard and all the parts inside. It will also have real C5 emblems on the front and real Z06 emblems on the side. It also will have a remote control to start up the computer as well as power it down. This computer is powered by all the latest and greatest components inside such as a Pentium 4 3.0GHz processor and a Geforce FX5900 graphics card. Just wondering if anyone out there is interested in such a computer. It will be complete and for sale by next week.

Here is a picture of the system before the mods go on.

Hi sebvette -

This is an interesting idea - I have seen the high end cases with the windows etc.

Very nice - Use a fob for the remote!

It would not be for me, however - for a couple of reasons -

1 - my 'puter sits in a desk so you would not see it
2 - I like to buy down the food chain a bit - since I am only programming and modeling, not gaming, I do not have to have bleeding edge 'puters.

You do have a good idea there - and it is something I am sure you could flesh out nicely - Where are the C5 logos? Maybe a Z06 logo...

best regards -

Lose the neon, why would a Z06 have neon? It's almost a factory race car, not a poser ricer mobile. :cheers:
