GM steals Corvette styling from Ferrari, and now gets credit when Ferrari copies a Ferrari.

As much as I like my corvettes, I think it is funny to see the brand loyal blinders come on with some corvette owners. Ferrari doesnt have to copy from anybody, they set the standard for looks. Although the car does have some C3 cues, its obvious its from ferraris original design, that GM copied in the 1st place.

You can see where GM Styling borrowed many of the '68 Vette's details, if not the overall shape.

Quoted from the late great Apex..
sure they saw your post, but some people like to put on what I call "Brand loyal Blinders" I get accused of being a Viper guy when people bad mouth it knowing nothing about the car, Quote magazines, even "claim" they have had them when any real owner can spot it out like a hooker in a church I have had 5 vettes and still own an 06 Z, got an old Ford mustang too, I love them all

I like the shape, although I'd like to see the rear a-pillar cleaned up a bit, but that color is going to give me nightmares tonight.

Please stick to either a proper Ferrari Rosso or black, please.
