Wow is right!
I love the fact they used the C4 chassis parts and LT4 engine.
Most people doing something like that today would have went with an LSx engine.
Beautiful car.

While I tend to be a purist, that is absolutely gorgeous, and a car to be proud of! They have improved the performance and handling without destroying the classic looks. I would certainly give it 2 thumbs up
