No but it should be significant if the entire body is CF!

i thought u were just kidding around when u said the entire body could be CF! Wow, ill keep my fingers crossed on that one! I'd also like to see how that paint scheme would look that someone here mentioned with the CF.

I love how the guys at DC can't see that it's a chop. 2 main reasons it is... the blue 'vette had cf inserts in the side vents, and the roof was black for some reason.

Look at the roof line of this bad boy This would look awesome in person Whats up with the seats, it looks like a bench seat, lol! you could not see out of the back window. I hope if this car cannot be a notch back at least give it a fast back look, just can't handle the coupe rear window.

As with most test mules, the rear of the car is probably packed with data aquisition devices & "black boxes" to measure and record for emissions and performance

It's not a chop, the roof is CF.

wow
everyone here seems to know it all .I love how some of you say the muscle car era is at an end???you honestly think that the aftermarket industry and the big boys who create big hp (callaway) lingelfelter rippie etc are just going to let that happen????i doubt it to much $$$$$ to be had.Some of you bitch about anything why not do something about it ???go to the museum see our new corvette engineer and voicce your opinion.Remember these engineers are not corvette people most are kids out of college thathave ideas.I wonder what the bluedevil/ss would look like if we still had John Carafo,and Larry Shinoda in charge of style and performance.You cant please everyone and everyone has a damm opinion.
Why dont you guys that bitch about petty crap go buy a case of depends diapers and wear them as 1 size fits all.Lets be greatful that the general ahs made a remarkable Car here and that the others are a distant 2nd.



later
