I love it except for one thing...No flip up headlights! Those headlights make it look foreign, like something European.

I think it's a Viper Ripoff. Not just because of the hood but because the 06 Z06 has 500 hp like the Viper. That thing is god aweful looking too [X(]

I really like the new C6 Corvette, and powered by a 7.0L V-8 in the ZO6 model, this car will be wickedly fast. I really like some of the styling the front end has, to make a modern Sting Ray look. However, I just think the C5 is such a much better looking car, then this could ever be! The C5 has smooth/sliky lines that look like it would just fly through the wind. With all the sharp cuts (like the Viper SRT-10) this car, just doesn't look as sleek as the pervious car!

Sad to say, but i think you're right. They're just trying to make it more popular, but why? It looked great as it was. Leave it to GM to mess around with a good car name. I still love the Corvettes, just the older ones.

I forgot to mention the sides of the doors. They have that indentation of the Viper. Chevy, you just lost all of your respect points [sm=smiley21.gif]
