    Can rims and tires on a C5 fit on a C6

    Yeah. I've seen plenty of C5s with C6 rims. I want to upgrade to 08 rims eventually or C6Z on my 02.

    So I know the hype about the new tech incorporations for the LT1 is primarily economy related, but I remember when they said "at least 450hp" and TQ... I think we can expect more than 450. They said the torque from 2k to 4k was equal to the Z06. I'm thinking 460+. Remember, 450 is only 14 above...

    Do you have a B2K car? Anyways, I still believe that overall, the performance was a fairly noticeable increase for the C5. I owned a 92. That LT1 was nothing stacked against the LS1. How long have you tracked your 87? Also, congrats for showing up the guys with their newer models. I want to...

    I think all FAST cars would be fine if they let them be the fast cars and stop making 550HP sedans lol

    Well the front rims are the same width as the C5 fronts and the rears are half an inch wider... and after all, the C5 fronts are narrower than C4's behemoth fronts. As were the C5 Z06's. And the C5 was a great leap in all around performance. I have faith they can at least make a fast Corvette lol

    Why the Corvette will be successful and why you don't like it.

    True... I was in a hotel pool in Oman (middle east) and when this guy that worked there saw my C5 emblem on my back he told me he loved Vette and he had an 01.

    2014 C7 Beautiful Poll

    I also thought that it had a C4 vibe, since the first spy photos. It's because of the longer hood look, probably because it appears to slope more backward than forward.

    I think the Carbon Fiber roof makes it look sharp and appears to be a smaller car without the red top... Just my 2 cents. But yeah I'm glad the tail lights turned out ok, fits nice with the design.... I was hoping for just smoked glass design with circle lights behing it. (Another thing people...

    Why do people complain that cars don't look like Ferraris??? It doesn't because it ISN'T a Ferrari. Same reason your Taurus doesn't look like a Jeep lol

    2014 C7 Beautiful Poll

    Everybody complained that it didn't look like a Ferrari and then complain that it looks too much like a Ferrari (it really doesn't) (Also it would only resemble a Front Engine Ferrari, which is a more recent thing (OH NO, is Ferrari stepping back to the stone age? Nobody complains about the...

    I thought about that too. But I don't think it will make a big difference in the blindspot... The split window would be worse, same reason they shut it down. I did love the wrap around glass, but it looks like they killed that off and the round tail lights with better results than when they...

    Also I know it looks kind of like the new viper, but after all, the viper was basically a corvette design rip anyways, long curved hood that opens backwards and a short rear end. Small and low. Anyways there was a Dyno and burnout competition between the current ZR1 and the new Viper and the...

    I think it looks pretty awesome compared to the original pics. I was really hoping the year old pictures were not the real deal, but it managed to make me fall in love lol. Now to go buy some of those seats for my 02

    I just washed my car at the wash. Then did a good wipe on the targa with a wet paper towel. Just made sure there wasn't any debris between the roof and my dip. I think I used wind ex to be sure. Just make sure it doesn't have film or dirt.

    I redid the stripes also. Don't have pics because I drove the other car to visit home for New Year. My friends ask why I only did one fender and I have to school them on the 96 GS. Then they happily agree. :cool!:

    Yeah. It looks better in person. At night it looks satin black in dim lights. In the daylight it just looks solid black. I used a full can on the roof, it was the first thing I dipped. It was very easy. Just take it off and tape off the metal parts that go above the side windows. Very cheap and...
