C5 and C6 comparison.
Here they are from approximately the same angle and sized to approximately the same ratio.

Re: C5 and C6 comparison. (TripleBlack99)
hey scissors, did you take that picture? Maybe you'd better lecture yourself on copyright law. :crazy:
I never actually claimed to give a crap about copyrights. I only wanted to clear up why companies would want to protect themselves by removing pics posted on their sites by others.

I figured this would assist in helping people directly compare the two generations and their proportions and details. :cheers:

Re: C5 and C6 comparison. (C52002VETTE)
While the pics of the car on the truck ion SF look pretty sweet, this angle looks pretty ho hum in my opinion. The front end looks like a lot of other cars and the sharp hood bulge is kinda funky. After ******* others for saying this, here I go...
- Looks like a Viper
- Looks like a barely modernized C5.
Also, the pics of the Z and the coupe aren't very comparable cause that color scheme on the Z is cheesy as all hell and it has that lift kit from the factory that most C5's came with. :lol:
Rear and side of C6 :thumbs:
Front of C6 :sleep: Not nearly mean enough.
It definitely looks more modern, but kind of in the way the 360 looks more modern than the 355 (actually a little less than that even) - more modern but not much BETTER. I'm sure I'll grow to like it though, but doesn't give me :conehead like the C5 first did.
