Outside, how does the red interior match up with the Torch Red exterior?

I'm starting to like the back more than the front. The grill area is starting to irk me.

Love the design though so aggressive BAD ***

Okay I admit it, I'm jealous of every person in those pictures.

Thanks for posting these. The car looks amazing.

To save time, they could have just dropped it off at Hendrick's shop.

I wonder if those seats will fit in a C6 without major modifications.

I don't think they (the seats) will fit in a C6. Car and Driver said that the frame rails on the C7 were spread apart to make room for the new seats. Again, this is based on C&D before the reveal so I wouldn't take this info as gospel

Beautiful pics-thanks.

I'm glad they didn't paint the rear same color all the way down. It really gives the illusion of a smaller more tapered rear. Painted down same color brings that big butt look back IMO. I also think the black will enhance all exterior colors and really sets it off.(except black).

Looks great!! Is the auction televised tonight?

Thanks
Rick

I've not seen anything saying about what time it goes on the block tonight. Same with the batmobile.

Yes, BJ is basically on the entire time it's going on live on speed.

I'll be leaving it on for the rest of the day to see whta the car goes for.

I agree.. the car looks more and more awesome each time I see it.
