I could take some pics of my '70 coupe with my '07 coupe. It's just a lowly coupe though.

Here is a C6Z06, C5 AE and C3 all in the same picture.




I know the Z06 is filthy in that photo, it is my daily driver and gets that way between washing. Best I could do on short notice, they are usually out one at a time.

Don't think it's a Z06 but it is a C6 and my '68.

I really wish I had a C3 to put beside my C6, and this thread isn't helping any! My original plan was to buy a nice '68 or '69 427 coupe but I decided that I'd rather have a vette that I could make my daily driver and take to the track. Maybe once my C6 is paid for....

It was painted in 1988 by a previous owner and the color is a little off. Original was Bridgehampton and when I get it painted in the future, I'll return it to original.

I'm shocked at how svelte a C3 rear looks compared to a C6!

True. Put a C3 beside a C5 and it's even worse. The reason is aerodynamics... small rear ends don't cheat the wind very well. Luckily the C6 was able to shrink the rear a little and still gain a small aerodynamic advantage over the C5.
