I was up close and personal with a red one yesterday in Novi Michigan and I will say the Z-51 brakes package is really nice looking and the exhaust tips have perforations in them as well (tuning??)
But like said above, no first year cars for me either!!

Nice shot! I don't like where they put the word Corvette (lower right rear). What was wrong with top center like the C5? Also that front license plate bracket is going to be a hoot on that front grill and nose when it is mounted

I think they are beautiful cars, but I really enjoy the look of the CORVETTE staring you in the face when you are behind it. I wish that GM/Chevy would have left it that way also!

Default Question on 2005 colors

Great pics! Is it my imagination or does the Yellow Vette color look deeper on this model?
