The potential of a Z06 Convertible with an 8 speed automatic transmission. What a new approach.

I like everything.. Color is great!

Only thing that hurts the looks of it is that cheap looking black plastic trim piece around the front wheel wells.

Yeah, that's not the most elegant of items.

It also appears the top of the fender extension hangs out over and well past the top of the tire, giving the top of the tire the appearance from the side of being well in-board. Kind of a strange sideways eyebrow look.

Car overall is a looker, tho.

I love the car overall and consider it a very desirable piece, but that fender treatment looks tacked on. Hard to figure why they didn't integrate it better because with the larger engine compartment vents it's already a different fender piece than the base model. Maybe that extra extension piece is only part of Z07? If so and it's strictly a functional high performance part rather than show business, then maybe you have to cut Chevy some slack.
