The egg crate thing is nothing important to me, it niether enhances or detracts from the appearance of the C6

Hey. I just thought of something positive to say about the C6. It's got us speaking about an actual vehicle, and not just a dream.
:cheers:

Re: Front end poll (Thunder7)
The huge license plate area is just another example of how the "bean counters" are cutting corners. An English or Euro plate will fit nicely in that area without having to tool up another rear bumper. Also those back up lights below the bumper can be rewired and revised as fog lights required in GB for example. The new Corvette has been recreated as a "one size fits all" product. They shrunk the car didn't they? While 70% of the Corvette is new; just think of all the opportunities that gave the "bean counters" to cut corners on the cost! Look what they did to the things you can see. What did you expect a MOMO steering wheel and Sparco seats? Now just imagine what they did to the things you CAN'T see! :D

Re: Front end poll (kewlbrz)
A front that could fit on a Ferrari - and has some C1 influence. Must be a few out there who have there headlamps and their eyes closed.
:D
