Re: pics of what i think the c6 should really look like...(more pics added) (94VetteFern)
Looks like a Miata.
Definately looks like a Japanese design.(no offense intended). But WE are typically physically larger than those "other people".
Make it "lighter" and "shorter:" ???
The lighter doesn't bother me. The SHORTER does.
I'd keep my C4's before I'd buy that.
I'd buy a USED C5 before I'd buy that.
If THAT is the body style then they need to build a new 4 cylinder engine to go with it.
The ONLY place to make the C6 shorter is the front and rear overhangs.
There's been NO mention of shortening the wheelbase.
These pictures represent a "real world" look at Corvette after it's made "shorter".
Looks like a bent T_RD on BOTH ends.
Punched in nose, whacked off butt.
Your pictures are great.I just hope GM doesn't go through with this European styling trend that the pictures represent. Seems they have set off down this trail in earnest.
What a shame.
The car is obviously trying to emulate something, ANYTHING, but NOT an American designed Corvette.
Take it back to the drawing boards and add that "reach" to it that Corvettes have had since 53'.
Otherwise that's some REALLY good artwork.
REALLY good for Mitsubishi, Honda,Toyota and the likes.
