My biggest fret with appearance of the C6 is that there ALL (with the exception of a very small amount of hardtop convertable) COUPES! They took the FRC/Z06 look away, and the coupe just can't hang with the looks of the hartops!
Other than that, driving a C6 is...ok, it's fast but too refined, a C5Z is a raw, nasty, muscled, sports car!

Just opinion, but C5>C6 ANYDAY! And I wouldn't mind having the pop-up lights come back either!

That being said, if I'd had $5000 less I most likely would have gotten a C5 z06 instead of my C6 z51.

When I have gone to the local car shows where there are a number of different makes, it seems the Aston Martin Vantage is the one car the masses seem to appreciate the most. Not that the Corvette should be styled after the Vantage but the smooth lined approach may be worth considering. The idea of moving the car technologically is a must as well.

The C5 is like a pretty girl whose azz is too big.....
...........while the C6 got it right! I own the even mumbered generations - C2, C4, and C6 - and while I think my '67 is the best looking of any year vette I give the C6 a close second. Nothing wrong with the C5 - if you like oversized booty!

Favors a Caddy too much to me. Dont like big toothy grill or that rear. I also agree it looks like a C6 with a few mods. Surely they will do better, much, much better.OK, its not all bad, I do like the tapered raised portion in the middle of the hood, it looks taller than the C6.

I own to C6s and a C5. I kept the C5 because it's a better looking Car. The C6s are better all around performers in spite of the "smiley" face. And, the very generic looking headlights.
