    The ePRS is asleep, but it told me to tell you to just read the specs for a C6 'Vette and then put a different body on it.

    The fascia is too deep, the sudden downturn in the beltline at the front wheels is awful, and the haunches should be integrated, rather than grafted on.


    I like the idea, since I've always loved the C2. And as much disdain as I have for rebodies trying to look like something else, rebodying a Corvette to look like a Corvette is forgivable. Better still that it's merely inspired by the C2, and not a clone of it.


    That said, I'd rather have a C6 that looks like a C6, and/or a C2 that looks like a (proper) C2.

    I honestly can't tell if it looks really good or if it looks like a '63 Split Window Ferrari 599 with overbite. Every time I blink it changes.

    At least it looks better than this "replica" of a Corvette Grand Sport based on a C-4 chassis.

    I am unsure what to think. Then again, I very much like the C5 with a C1 body job whenever I see one.

    The one thing that I didn't like about those was the taillights; I just don't think they translated well onto the modern car. It would have looked better if they went with the 58-61 taillights.

    @Tomsk is leading the search for the preview button: Sorry. I meant 58-60 tailights.



    Incidentally, that's also the same color that I would want one of these n2a Stingray roadsters. They can keep that particular girl.
