Exactly. It was clearly a committee design, and they just added modern Ferrari-like surfacing and LEDs. They also copied the GTR from the b-pillar back, and got rid of the trademark basket handle for a generic c-pillar. The only unique part is the taillights, which I wouldn't have been against if they friggin' made it…

Ignoring? Jesus fuck, every story relating to the C7 has a bunch of jalop commentors bitching about it.

It did, however, still manage to catch a little bit of hell for it's sidebody similarities to the RX7.

I personally like the C5 design over the C1,4,6 and 7. Only the 2nd and 3rd gens are better looking to me... but the curves of those cars are unlikely to ever be reproduced.

I would love a C6, but the C5s were not that much slower, and with the LS1 you know it's easy to raise the horsepower level. A C5 will definitely, most likely be my next fun car.

Get rid of the fake engine and horrible wheels and I'd probably pay $5k for it

Ah finally! Apart from interior transgressions, easily rectified, the C5 is still one of the best looking vettes. There's a great balance the styling that is missing in the later models.

It bothers me how uncritical most people are of the C7's styling. How can you look at a C5 (or any other Vette for that matter) and say the C7 looks good?

Sarcasm is a common tool of the dick.

People aren't mad at you because you picked on White people. People are mad at you for being a dick.

The C5 Corvette is the best looking generation of Vette's ever. Aside from the steering wheel, even the interior is my favorite one yet. Black on black C5 Z06 with charcoal wheels = perfection.

If this wasn't an issue of skin color, you wouldn't have included skin color in your original comment. It's obvious the buyer is rich, but you decided to assume their White as well. By presenting White and rich as a fact and not just a likelihood, you're helping to put people into boxes based on biologically…

Because you're allowed to have a driver's license and own firearms. Because your vote counts as much as mine does. Because you could be my doctor or my lawyer and I need you to understand the world better than that. Because I'm going to end up having to pay extra taxes to cover your fuckups at some point in my life.…

Man that just sucks.

If I did anymore crack my teeth would fall out.

Hell, you could buy a pigeon for that much!

I thought it wasn't a half bad conversion until you said its fake and just there for looks. $8k to me called a faker? No thanks

If your comment said black instead of white, it'd be racist, but since we live in a society of double standards, you're totally OKAY!!!!!!

Bringing race into it is stupid and irrelevant, but thanks to the power of Google it is easy to turn an educated guess into fact. (Yes, she is white, likes ballet, her husband is a higher up at a hedge fund, she has two kids, they bought their home in 1995 for a little over $1,170,000, etc.) So the question is...are…

Bringing race into this discussion is pretty asinine.

That guy knows what's up. He's got a little tree so he knows he's FRESH™ while crashing at 180.
