Default A few pics from the LA Auto show!

I got out to the LA Auto show the other day, and really enjoyed seeing the new ZR1!

Here's a few pics I took with my cell phone.

I like the looks of the front fender side vents on the current C7/Z06 better. Not as bland/gaudy IMO.

I do like the new wheel design, it has to be lighter!

I agree with regards to fender vents. It might have been better to just fully integrate the vents into the panel without the additional carbon fiber piece(s).

Nonetheless... overall the car is a home run

The logo looks better on the steering wheel.

The average person would look at that sign without knowing ZR1 history and not figure it out quickly.

Designers getting too fancy.

It certainly is...

Yes, she was pretty decent, but I have to say the model that was on the job last week when Furman was there, was outstanding!

See below...
