Default The C6 GTR

I was looking on the site for the dealership where I got my C6 and I came across a link that said "C6 GTR." If you go here: http://www.purifoychevrolet.com/ and then mouse over the "Corvettes" section, you'll see the "C6 GTR" link. Not sure if anyone cares but just thought I would share. I thought it was kinda cool and I've never really seen a Vette quite like those.

I'm not a fan of the ground effects but other than that it's nice.

Damn, I don't live too far from there. I should go check it out. I'm not sure that I'd want to own one, but it's kinda cool looking.

Great find. Enjoyed reading about it. I would have to shave my driveway to get it in the garage.

So, if you can afford one do you worry about a warranty?

The kit comes with an ASTRONOMICAL price tag..

You might as well but a ZR1, with the way its priced.

I think it looks great, but I would pay the extra money and get a ZR1.

Not if you bought it for me.

It looks like they added every cheezy plastic body piece they could find on it. What's the name of that [in]famous catalog I'm thinking of?

I'll take it one step further and say that I would be embarassed to drive it but just my .02 .... YMMV
