The golden age is the age you own!

IMO it would look better with the hatch.

i remember when i was a little kid..i would always see a red c4 that looked just like this parked at a pizzeria in town. it always reminded me of a Ferrari F40

Default black corvette

Looks to me like the car is the result of an affair between a Chev Avalanche and one of those Dodge Daytona pickups

Its a wide body kit , or pieces of it , from the vender ACI, not a bad look for a track car and based on some reading I've done , actually works for what its intended purpose is, a little much for the street. The black one isnt to my taste, but the two red ones are, course I have some of the aci pieces on my track car , so I'm a bit biased. If its your car and you like it , nothing else matters

This thread has gone well past the 45 day limit. Some threads are better off left riding into the sunset, this one included.

Wow. even you and I agree on something for once



This would have been a good post, if it didnt bash c4's.

I agree, that car is hideous and a disgrace to c4's.

However to infer that c4's are a disgrace to corvettes real ticks me off.

I believe this is the umpteenth time that rolling abortion has made a appearance in C4 General. I don't think our retinas can stand it again.
