Default opinions about C6 FRC pic?

I like the "trunk" shape better than the hatch. What do you guys think? I actually might do it, if I'm able to pick up a Z. I added the "before" pic, cuz it helps me to compare the two. The more I look at the trunk pic, the more I like it.

No, I like the hatch better. But it's your choice.

The look is not for me. I like being able to put two sets of golf clubs and my Speed Cart in the back.

Just curious, because a lot of people didn't like my idea about this C5 either, and then I got a lot of positive responses after I did it. Do any of you guys like what I did to the C5?

It looks good. I like the rear wing. I had a wing similar to that on the wife's Mitsubishi 3000 GT-VR4. The color scheme also has good contrast. To each his own.

I do NOT like the FRC pic. The OEM ZR1 roofline looks great....

If you like the look of a ZR1 convertible...I like it. Not that I prefer it to hatch, but it is very different looking.

I happen to like the look of the C6 convertible with the top up quite a bit.

No Sonny, don't even think about it!!! Spend some of those big $'s you make, buy a silver ZR1 and be done with it.

I agree with the OP that the 'trunk' roofline looks great. I think the photoshop job cut the back off too short though....take your cue from the roofline of the Vert.
