For that kind of money they can order what ever they want...and they did. Very different to say the least.

Kind of a Ronald McDonald look.

Do they still charge extra for uncommon color selections like they did the C6? You had to pay a premium if you wanted yellow with red interior.

I would think all of you with gaudy chrome wheels would love everything about this C7.

The red calipers clash with the top.

THIS ^^^^. Makes some sense. Could it be a corporate company purchase? Hertz did it.....I expect if McDonalds was to order a corporate show car, it would look something just like it.

Could be worse:
