I will sue him, but it is going to be for making a fugly car.

If you think it looks like a C6, please do not drive tonight. Put them smokes away and get rid of dat bottle.

Scheech!

Keep talking about this car, and I will buy you one and take your Vette away.

LOL

lol...

Imagine pulling up to a stop light and one of those "bad boys" pulls up beside you with its ricer exhaust and tries to edge you on? Do you really want a little mini me following you? Even if it doesnt look 1:1 like a corvette you can tell where it was influenced from. Just look at the yellow c6 on the top of the forum!

I say, more power to him. I think it's great when homebuilts hit the market, and love to see the spirit of individual enterprise alive and well.

I think it looks more like the Ferrari 599.

I doubt GM will feel threatened.

King Midget- there's a blast from my past. A friend of my dad drove 40 miles one way everyday to work for a couple years and then his kids drove it to school for several years. Tiny little thing as I remember with an air cooled motor.

It's actually a rip-off of an Attack kit car and has nothing to do with the C6.
