Here you go...

Linky

Check out the second vid. Why couldn't they include exhausts like that on our Vettes?

What exactly are you wishing for? The look, or the tone?

Sounds good. Still not crazy about the overall looks of it but there are some things I like about it.

Because on a real car, it's impractical to say the least. How would you like to constantly clean soot and carbon residue off the hindquarters of your Vette?

If the car is stock then your not going to have that problem. Look at how many cars today have the exhaust blending into the body or coming out of the rear bumper. There are a lot.

I was referring to more the tone than looks... although I won't complain if they offered both.
