Default Customized C7 - at SEMA?
Just came across these images, thought I'd share.
Don't know anything about the pictures, but guessing something SEMA related.

Edit: Reported to be a Forgiato C7 Widebody

Well, now that I knew what to search for I see it's already been posted (different pictures though). Sorry for the duplicate.

Great for what it is, a SEMA show car. Probably not too far removed from what we'll see on the C7R.

Amazing looking compared to the standard. Color is what it is, SEMA. Picturing that black...yes.

A bit too "Smurfy" for me. The blacked out tail lights look pretty good though.

Considering they cleared about 35-50g's in profit after parts/labor cost...I'd say that car is a winner.

Out in the sandy, drab color of dubai, that car will make women rip off their hijab's...

I love those tail lights. I am usually not a "black out" your lights kind of guy, but those I like. Do venders actually sell these now?
