... Get rid of the emblems on the front and back, and is that Foghorn Leghorn under the hood???

I like it, it may not be everyones cup of tea but I could see myself driving it. But then again I dont have a problem with Green Viper ACR's and big wings going back and forth to work either.
......I would have used the puke smiley but I can't find it....

If it weren't for those HUGE emblems and the under hood cartoon I would have given it a thumbs up, but with those it gets the RICE vote from me.

I am shocked to see that 21% thinks it looks great, with 11% undecided. Let's say 1 in 4 like it, that is surprising to me.
To me, the car is a spin on the Fast and the Furious. I have seen imports painted this exact same way. Yes, the wing is race inspired, but it is too gaudy for the street.
I guess 1 out of every 4 Corvette people have a little Fast and Furious in them. That fad has made a huge impact in the car scene, that is for sure. Hopefully GM doesn't start incorporating it into the C7.

no one mentioned the huge wing??? if it's a c6-r straight racecar, ok, but street? that's a slap in the face to the design team of the c6 zo6/zr1. straight rice. that's like giving the mona lisa bright red lip stick, a huge perm, and gucci sunglasses :p might as well put a fart can on it while you're at it.

I think rice is a moniker that may apply here, but! A z06 is a real performance car, and really cannot be riced! It looks a little "cheap add-on" but not rice. Rice means nothing but Checker auto parts add-ons, no performance gain. But yes, it is ugly!

I wouldn't call it 'rice' but agree with the rest - without the huge C6 emblems front/back it's actually OK in my book. Those other decals/lettering on the rear just look stupid, all that including the big emblems really cheapens the look tremendously IMO.
