We should start a thread;
"The cars that give C4's a bad rap". You know, all the ghetto C-list cars, C5 conversions, Ferrari Conversions...

This car could kick it all off. Yikes.

OMG That thing looks like kid's Transformer toy come to life!
Ugly is too good of a word to describe it.
I think Chevrolet/GM did a Great job designing Corvettes through the years and there is NO reason for modification...
Every year Corvette is sleek and beautiful IMO right out of the factory..

There are certain compromises that GM made to produce a sports car that performs well and maintained a level of affordability. If it's a functional upgrade I'm all for it, but Testarosa vents to get air to an engine that isn't there is one of the worst things you could ever do.

Is that a dog bowl or a center cap on the ground by the back tire?. I like the Buick portholes through. I think a Studebaker hood ornament would round it out nicely. LOL
