Local car for me. Looked like this a few weeks ago.

vettedoogie 02-05-2011 09:24 PM

I think it is cool that someone is clearly having a great time with it.

I find it refreshing that someone uses it as a personal expression that the Corvette is just another car. They are just expressing a real give-a-crap attitude about what so many believe has to be a pristine example of their wealth/achievement/manhood.

Hey, it takes all kinds...

gunterwalker 02-05-2011 09:24 PM

There has already been quite a few threads on this car.

:iagree:

Apparently that car has some nice engine upgrades. I forget what thread but I think it has well north of 600 HP.

tmjvett2009 02-05-2011 09:30 PM

It could have 10000 Hp and it would still be junk:ack:

It never fails...you take care to park way out in the parking lot and some idiot parks right next to you. ;)

Nice...air induction by Home Depot! :thumbs:

Different strokes and all but I can't imagine what would possess anyone in their right mind to do that. Maybe he leases it.

dvilin 02-05-2011 09:40 PM

Wow, a Vette that Zaino would be of no help to, hard to believe.:D

surburban99 02-05-2011 09:44 PM

Racer 02-05-2011 09:45 PM

How come no one ever has a pic of this owner. I would love to see a pic of the guy...let's say..getting pummelled into submission.

Oh my God what happened so sad to see a vette looking that bad. He or she can't be all there no way ! And it is a c6 right ? How could that have happened seriously ?

vettedoogie 02-05-2011 09:50 PM

This is what happens when you don't buff the Zaino out asap.

rchbn 02-05-2011 09:55 PM

I like the black halo on the orange one! And to think I was afraid mine wouldn't look good. Where is this car parked in case my black halo doesn't come out so good and I can park next to him?

OMG! "Rat Vette" contest winner? Demolition Derby prepped? Earl Sheib failure? "After" picture following Chevy dealer service? NCRS drop out? Hard to believe it's an "after" rather than a "before" picture.

I could go on...But in the interest of common decency I'll stop here.

He just did what he had to to keep the vette away from his ex-wife. I'm giving him as pass.

All you clucking hens getting angry at a stranger for what he does with his own property are the ones with the problem.

Daredevil95 02-06-2011 01:08 AM

:iagree: I wouldn't do it, but if some guy/gal decides to use the Corvette as their personal art expression (good, or BAD in this case) so be it.

Anyone remember when BMW gave the "in" artists of the period a car to paint as they saw fit? As bad as this looks, no worse than some of those BMW's. Or was it Audi?

:cheers:

rdm1465 02-06-2011 02:02 AM

Quite honestly, I don't see anything wrong with it as long as the owner is happy with it. So many here with the negative attitude. What about those of you that mod your cars and it won't start or move after? Get over yourselves.

duramaxsky 02-06-2011 02:08 AM

Must have a lot of money. I can't afford a C6. Not without selling something else. I don't want one that bad. My C5 makes me happy.

GatewayShepherd 02-06-2011 02:13 AM

You can call it art...I'll call it trash.

I think it is funny- and supercharged to boot! I like it! Anyone got more links/pics?

nch209 02-06-2011 03:24 AM

A quick google search (The Dragon Vette) yielded some killer photos- looks like it was red, then black, and now AO. Is this guy a member here? I am a neat freak- but this car makes me smile big time!!!

pTr73 02-06-2011 05:03 AM

OMG thats hideous! :crazy2:

At least he can still say he gets 17/26 mpg, 0 - 60 in 4 sec and the 1/4mi in 12.4 respectively! :thumbs:

I would not do that either as I don't like clones. It is still not the same thing. At least those follow the way the car was designed. :willy:

Weasel 02-06-2011 11:26 AM

I'm very tolerant as far as folks doing ther "own thing" in the name of art. My personal opinion is that it is sacrilege for home modifiers to think that they can change their Corvette at home and have it turn out better than Chevrolet can produce. Home modifiers can only make it different. The days of flipping your air-cleaner lid upside down and improving our breed are over. Art though...Hmm

I certainly never said this was art...but then "art" is always in the eye of the beholder. I think of it as "modded", just like any one who adds stripes, flames, airbrushed hood covers, etc.

I've always said people can do whatever they want to their cars but that doesn't mean others will like it. Heck, my stock Vette is totally boring to many so even doing nothing can be perceived as a negative.

It's interesting that this guy has never (to my knowledge) posted any pics of this car here. Others have.

As much credit? At least those people take pride In their vehicles. This guy is insulting Corvettes and their owners on purpose. He is degrading this poor automobile that many people can just dream about owning and caring for. If I saw this guy, I would insult him to his face and hoped he reacted the way I would want him to.

"Poor automobile"? C'mon man, get a life. He owns it, he can do whatever he wants to it. It is a car, not an animal being mistreated.:rofl:

I consider it an insult to the Corvette when people do a lot of appearance mods to their cars. I consider it an insult when people do performance mods to their cars and then lie when they remove those mods to sell them without telling the buyer. So what?

The fact that anyone would get this "insulted" and would be violent towards him/her about it is really sad. He/she is clearly having fun with it, why do you care?

Weasel 02-06-2011 02:18 PM

Once I settle on buying a Corvette, I'm satisfied with it. Then, I don't put any more money into it besides maintenance because--I would rather save for the next generation. It's the next generation that has the real improvements that will appeal to me.

But as far as art? Imagine Whistler's Mother yelling at him while he poses her sideways for his famous painting of her, "Face me forwards son. You'll make people laugh at me!"
