Default Corvette 620 SuperAmerica

My daughter and I are both ferrari fans and we watch F1, NASCAR AMLS and indy. The first few posts i made were about vists to cars and coffee at the ferrari dealership. Ever since then my daughter came up with ideas for our Corvette. So far the Corvette has fender shields with the red white blue color scheme and the corvette cross flags. These are hand made badges for the fenders. Next Jasmin came up with a carbon fiber cross flag grill badge and the purpose was to move the orignal badge in the grill area just like ferrari. We finally got corsa sports for the car and it really sounds like maserati with a deeper exhaust note. both of us would leave the car at the bestbuy parking lot and come back seeing people talking about it. An older gentleman said it was a special edition corvette. the subtle mods have made our corvette unique and look more expensive. there have been other people that disagree with the things done to our corvette. mostly its corvette owners that dislike the ferrari like mods and even the corsa exhaust bugs them. At this point i decided since italian design houses and coach builders used corvette engines and styled covette bodies i decided that it was not a bad idea building a italian styled corvette. We love our corvette and dont see any reason to buy a ferrari now that our car sounds amazing and even looks slighty italian. Next is a dsvettes interior with custom made 620 super america badges for the interior. thanks to everyone who helped me on this forum.

no, but you need to host the pics on a third-party site (like Photobucket), and copy the IMG tags
to post the pics in threads here on the CF.

You can use the Testing Forum in the "Help & Feedback" section to experiment.

So in other words you are trying to make your Corvette look like a Ferrari?

Even as going as far as stealing a name Ferrari has used on multiple cars it has produced?

I just dont understand his point about some old man saying it was a special edition. Is it more than old man has no idea what he was talking about?

i dont want my car to look like a ferrari if that was the case i would have put a yellow shield on the fenders. as for the old man he might have not known what it was because to me its a base 1lt ls3 not even close to the cars forum members own. there my daughters ideas so if she gets good report cards she get the mods she wants
