Default C7 Sighting

On my way home from work today and spotted this. I was so focused on the blue one I didn't notice the green one right behind it till they took off. Got a honk and a thumbs up from the driver of the blue one when I passed him, and he got one back from me. Both looked great but I still love my C6.

I promise I'm not trying to be rude.....BUT, there is a C7 section where this probably should have been posted.

WTF He has a C6 I liked his post and I am glad he posted it here. I don't go to the C7 post too much so what the f**k is the difference!!!

I didn't know there was a "post patrol" out there.

There isn't a post patrol on here, but this IS the C6 section!! I wonder how many people post C6 pics on the C5 section?

I frequently mention my Ferrari here in the C6 section - yes, I still own, drive, and enjoy my C6 (117,900+ miles on it) - and no one's complained yet... but, since I did mention my Ferrari (twice) in this post feel free to castigate me - as well as the OP - on this thread.

You can mention Ferrari in any post in any thread and any section and I'm good with that!! At least a Ferrari and a C6 look better than the Japanese Anime C7!!

Hmmm..... I was thinking of adding a ____ to the bunch in February. Maybe we should substitute Voldemort for C7, would that be less painful?

Nice catch with the pics and thanks for sharing.

I'm really trying but, damn, in the mirror it still looks like a ricer coming up on you from behind. In traffic, it's still got a crappy a$$.

Maybe some diaper cream would clear up that rash.

The rear will improve when they quit painting the lower rear fascia black on all the cars as that is a bit low rent in appearance.

It's unbelievable that the moderators moved this thread into this section. It's like they're actively shoving all the riff-raff out of the C6 section and into the C7 section.

We don't need any more of this nonsense here....

Honestly, if you're going to move it, delete everything except the OP at least...

I find the rear looks a lot nicer without the spoiler (from the rear view) only, but when looking at the car from the side or the front angles the spoiler looks better than no spoiler.

The blue one was on the ABC Friday night news. The news host David Muir (sp) took a drive with Jeff Gordon at the woodward cruise
