Is this the pattern?
I have noticed...
C1's = Bubble, curved body
C2's = Jaggy Sharp Body, with some curves
C3's = Bubble, curved body
C4's = Jaggy sharp body, with some curves
C5's = Bubble, curved body
C6's = from what people have said will have a sharp jaggy body while maintaining some of the C5 curves.
Coincidence or not??

I wish they would take notes from Ferrari and create the ultimate jagged edged vette although they need to maintain the front fender look somehow. Just wouldn't be a vette without it. :yesnod:

Re: I hope so! (Randi)
Paninfarina designs are too radical for GM right now, but they seem to be on this futuristic-look crap now that i wish theyd jump off of.
If the C6 is evolutionary of the C5, i wouldnt be surprised if there were sharper lines.

Re: Is this the pattern? (Tom/99)
The C6 can be a C5 that has been creased, just a little for my taste. I liked the car and driver illustration, although the back end could get a little edgier too. I agree though that the Caddys are too edgy.

The C3's were pretty jagged and sharp. I'd put them right up there with the C2 as the most pointy-edged.
