Vette(s): 1980 L-48 still in the middle of a frame-off.
Mixed feelings on this one. Still has the short rear of the C-6 and some curves of the C-3.  Overall I still prefer the true curves of my 80.



Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.

Looks nice and all - but I still like the originals better.
 
Let the rest of them go back to the old days / old school - I'd prefer GM / Corvette keep looking forward like they have done with the current Z06 and ZR-1.
 
They are cute though ..... Clap

Vette(s): 1971, LT-1, T-top, 4-speed (M21), Mulsanne Blue, 3.70 rear, mostly original (sidepipes). 2006, Daytona Sunset Orange Coupe.
At least this one looks better than the attempts that Chrysler did with the Challenger, Chevy's Camaro, or even Ford's Mustang. This one's got the curves Baby!

They never stopped making the Corvette, so why do we need one of these?

Something about the real lines of the C3 which can't be effectively blended into a C6 and come out with the same feel.  Will keep the C3, thank you.

Vette(s): 1977 #s matching Orange L48 4-speed and a 2000 Black FRC 6-speed BOTH SOLD :(
I'll go against the grain here, and say I like it.  If they could produce a new Corvette and plop a C3 body on it, I'd trade in the 77 and 00 and buy one.  There's nothing like having the best of both worlds - the style and grace of a C3 body and all the creature comforts and power (and gas mileage) of a C5 or C6 Vette.
