Where does the front license plate go on the tigershark? I wouldn't put mine in the front center in front of the grille piece, that would look dumb. Unfortunatly they are required here in VA (although I don't put mine on, teehee), and if the C6 nose looks like this, I could have a problem (or maybe just a better excuse for the judge... :smash: :yesnod:)

:cheers:

It will only be sold in states that do not require front plates. :lol:

When I was at BG Labor Day outside the plant there was 4 or 5 front ends just like that sitting on the ground behind the fence. What caught my eye was the opennings that I now see was for the parking/directional signal lights.

I think we're looking at our rumored "Super Vette" in the $100k range.

i think you might see those (tiger shark) front and rear facias on the 50th anniversary (JMHO). the C6 won't be a reskinned C5, but will be an evolution of the existing corvette. some rumors i've heard - the next gen vette will have aluminum hydro-formed frame components, 5 speed automatic transmission, slightly smaller outside dimensions, hopefully a 427 engine (as an option). i don't think it will be totally new corvette (as a c5 is to a c4), but it will build on the existing c5 design. it will be more than new body panels. - rumors, rumors, rumors - :D
