    Ridiculous. And what's so nice about those headlights? They look as amateur and outdated as usual. Z06 still is a cool beast though.

    I'll take the wheels and headlights, they can keep the rest.

    Burt Reynolds called and he wants his automobile styling back. Pure white trashery.

    @Sportwagons have hustle AND bustle: The ultimate dousche baggery was this little runt who rolled into the paddock at Road Atlanta and towing hi sGT3 with a Cayenne - then after nursing it around the track got out and proceeded to put Porsche brand brake cooler fans at each wheel while wearing a black Porsche bowling shirt with yellow epaulets. True story.

    @nunya001: Wasn't even a Cayenne Turbo, was it? Didn't think so. And with an automatic, of course.

    If I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times. There needs to be more factory-option tacky appearance packages for the 'Vette.

    @WilliamG.:


    I have to say it saves a lot of time for the people that buy them then add the tacky stuff, at least this way it stays stock and tacky

    @78_elky: And the factory-option tacky will hold its value in ten years when the 'Vette is rolled across the block at Barrett Jackson. It's a total win-win.

    This is weaaaaaaaak.


    Comp sport should have adjustable springs, STICKY, STICKY tires, FORCED manual transmission, and a BETTER appearance package. Maybe a C6.R replica livery. Like the vette skull thing (I forget its name)... bigger brakes, competition front fascia/airdam


    This current package is tomfoolery.

    @Plecostomus - A monument to failure: Is it the blue devil skull-thingy you speak of?


    Club-Sport prepped Miatas are more track worthy than this Pep Boys special. Hey, that's an idea! Make a BUDGET-minded club sport minded 'vette! Then you could actually excuse the cheap interior!

    @mchale2020: The blue devil skull thingy is the Bad Boy Vette from the C6R program.

    @Plecostomus - A monument to failure: The skull is named "Jake"... and it's mentioned in the article. That said... yeah, it's a stupid package.

    @Blainestang:

    Ah, right.


    Well anyways what I meant was (though this package USES "Jake") the ENTIRE livery should reflect the C6.R program.


    @ WilliamG.

    the story says that this package is an option for the Z06 and the stock vette.


    That said, this package should be a notch above Z06 handling but not quite as good as the ZR1. And the stripes are hideous.

    I really, really hate this Vette.

    If I won one in a raffle or something, I'd still take it, but the first thing I'd do is spray paint the entire thing matte black, just to hide all this nasty shit.
