Callaway is realy great at everything they do "except" that. Not a pretty sight.

Certainly will not win any contests for looks but from what I have read they are first rate in the performance category.

This is a personal choice. Some like it others do not. I personally feel they are way to quite for me. I love my Corsa Sport Exhaust much more.

Go to a Callaway dealer and test drive one. You can make your mind up at that point. I will give fair warning though, you may not like the exhaust but you will LOVE the performance of the Callaway Package on that Vette you test drive. It is out of this world, IMHO.

Callaway Chris can guide you as to where the closest Callaway Dealer is to you.

I like the look of double Ds.

Won't be changing my Dynomax high-flow system, but the double Ds have always caught my eye.

I have it and like it a lot. Not too loud so you can really hear the blower when you get on it a little.

I don't love the look without the slats, but with them it's my favorite.

You cant be serious! That is well over 50% of what the exhaust cost. Say it aint so!!!

I love the look but I won't be getting one unless there is a SC under the hood. The slats are real pricey though.

It's about the ugliest thing that can be put onto our cars.

I wasn't sure that I liked them but they have grown on me. I really like the looks now. Everything you want to know can be found at http://callawaycars.com

Are the "SLATS" surrounding the DD tips really that expensive? Do they just bolt on? Great looking car.

I partially agree. Callaway is IMO one of the top three names in Corvette performance...they're great at what they do under the hood but I don't like their exterior body 'creations.' I agree with you on the 'Double-D' exhaust....it looks atrocious!
