The graphics and wheels are not really to my taste, but the overall body seems pretty sorted.

Not to my tastes. Although the chrome red is interesting.

Why the black magic marker all over the otherwise nice car?

Need to see the other angles because here it looks like a front engine car.

The body kit looks great... Hopefully the Z06 looks like this... What's going on with the paint though ?

I like the chrome red but not the wheels or the graphics on the red. Just red and black for me.

Triple Red? Not what I was expecting - but, it's your car and if you like it, that's all that matters

Not “Triple Red”. That is what first read. It is “Trippie Red” apparently a rap or hip hop artist. It is a car he had customized.

That explains everything...rap, hip hop. No further explanations needed.

I’m with others - the wheels and graphics do nothing for me, but the wide body kit and chrome red exterior looks really good.

I would like to see better/smoother integration of the fender flares into the body. Looks tacked on to me.
