Default Bagged c7

I’m extremely happy to reveal my bagged c7.
Here it is everyone.
Yes, I’m crazy enough to install air suspension on a corvette. But I always wanted to, I just love the look and feel for it.
Showing up to car shows and airing out. Grabs a ton of attention and love. In SoCal, I havnt seen one yet myself. So pretty much everyone seeing it at the shows are loving it.

Don't care for the look and don't understand why you would want to do it, however since it's something you always wanted to do I applaud you for accomplishing it.

Cool looking for sure. I've had a few bagged rides. An Impala and a couple mid 90s short beds. Pretty freaking awesome.

I would say yes. I had custom struts and control arms fabricated for this. It actually handles better. My coilovers were stiff but these just feel better

I personally think it's an eye catcher because the look is ridiculous.

it feels pretty good actually. I tried giving it a few rips intentionally to see how it’ll handle it. Way better than I expected.
I would recommend it if you have the extra money for it. I personally did it for the looks because for some reason I’ve alwaysssss wanted to put air suspension on a car I owned, I think the corvette was the best choice since there aren’t many with it.

I am also betting the younger crowd will be drawn to it also nice to see a Corvette being campaigned for the younger generation

Definitely a different stance. So when do the Lambo doors get installed?

I'm waiting for the mod that lifts the car up about a foot higher so old guys like me can get in and out easier!
