Default Love the way it stands out

In a sea of blah, I love how it stands out. I just had to turn around and snap a pic.

I couldn't agree more! One of the best looking C6's around.

Man, how can anyone call that "dated" ? So classically styled. Just a beautiful Corvette.

Thanks! I agree but we’re in a world where you’re told you must have the newest model of everything. Your 4K tv is old news you need the 28k LED 4D virtual reality tv now, and you need the iPhone 13 because the 7 you’re currently using is dated.

Corvettes have great designs & when properly taken care of, still look great no matter what generation.

Tastefully done, but not overdone. I like how you've done the contrasting black touches, the black wheels, headlights, etc. Would love to see it in person sometime. Not far away.

Nothing better than Inferno Orange! Looks like two different colors when it's in the sun vs. shade. I also love how rare it is. I've only seen one other IO C6 in person. It was a '11 Z06 Carbon.

That is a great color for a C-6. What kind of polished or chrome wheels do you plan on upgrading to ?

If someone wants to donate a set of chrome ZR1s, I'd be happy to accept them, otherwise I like the black just as well!

No thanks. I prefer the look of gloss black wheels on almost every color. Our metallic silver Outlander has polished wheels with black pockets which looks really good with that color, but that's really about the only color I would go with polished wheels.

If my wife would've had her way, I would have had a convertible. I'm not a convertible guy, but I could probably live with an IO 427 There's another IO GS in Frisco not far from me & a IO ZR1 in McKinney I believe. .

Very nice indeed, although it looks like someone stole your chrome hubcaps
Sorry, I couldn't help it.

What a great looking car for sure. I don't blame you for looking back. It's hard not to admire the lines of the C6.
