Default Sorry guys but Always Red Dave thinks this RED ZR1 is UGLY!

Ok the orange ZR1 looks alright but as much as I hate too say it these pictures of the RED ZR1 are just plain ugly!Maybe it is the larger front end and wider fenders but not a good look. Maybe it needs SPATS like the Z06! I Found these pictures from a post by Snorman in the SPATS ARE BEAUTIFUL THREAD!

Are you in some kind of dire need of reassurance on your choice of Corvette??

You’ve made at least 3-4 posts now talking about how you don’t like the ZR1 compared to the Z06 or that you prefer the looks of the Z06...

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but it’s starting to become a broken record...

I wonder how some of the C6 and C5 guys that hate the look of the 2014-2018 C7 would think of this close up pictures.

Dave,

You have already gone on record stating you will NOT be buying a ZR1. So why are you here bashing it? This is a Corvette enthusiast forum and this particular section is devoted to the ZR1. We don't need your constant nagging and negativity. If you don't like the car then GO AWAY.
Go back to the Z06 forum and do this. Or better yet the General forum that seems to cater to this kind of stuff. You are literally cluttering up the forum. A few more of these and I am simply going to add you to my ignore list. It is getting old and annoying.

I belong to a number of car enthusiast forums and none of them put up with crap like this. You would be instantly banned anywhere else.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but these two pictures do not do this car any favors.The rendering of this Red ZR1 that I started a thread saying how awesome the ZR1 will be is what I was expecting.

I will take your advice but be sure to add me to your ignore list before I go as I have added you too mine. Before I go I was just bashing these two pictures but not the car but like I said I will go back to the Z06 forum and C7 general forum. Sorry I am not in your other car enthusiast forums but I don't know how you have all the time because 1389 post since 2005 doesn't make you a expert!

Not really a fan of the big hood bulge, the front splitter, or big wing either, but they're all functional. It'll be a beast for sure.

Looks good to me. I like the red roof, only if roof had a carbon strip as wide as the hood. That would awesome!

I like the red ZR1 and I like the red Z06.

Many of us can admire more than just one.

Dave, enjoy your beautiful ride.

Thanks for posting a photo of the red ZR1 as well.

I would like to say something in my defense. The ZR1 is not out yet nobody owns one or drives one . If it was out and people were buying them I would never put any negative spin on the ZR1 or any car that people own. The ZR1 forum as it is set up now I felt was opinion only based forum since no car is on sale yet or driven by any forum members. With that said I have strong opinions on the car that some take offense too. What I am really doing is just stating how I feel about the car before it is here for people to purchase. If the ZR1 forum was only supposed to have positive comments or no comments I was unaware of that rule. Thanks Dave
