Reminds me of the Ferrari F12 I saw in Vegas last week during CES...the F12 looks MUCH better!

“Also, is the photo reversed, or is that really a RHD Vette?”
This one must be reversed; I’ve got other images of it with the steering wheel on the correct side. This one is a little too tricked out for me; I do want the fixed headlights though. It’s got a 502ci engine, way too much power for me.

My husband is a lifelong Corvette enthusiast and former Vette owner (’80 C3 with the curvy shark body). He says none of the recent models look like Corvettes, and in fact look all the same. I agree with him. There’s nothing to distinguish them....just that rounded, inflated-looking body. All horsepower and no style.

GM spent a ton of money on the Cadillac CTS and ATS, and on the new Corvette. Despite their good numbers for speed and handling, they simply have no class or ‘gotta have it’ appeal, and sales are proving it.

I saw RHD Camaros and 'Vettes in Australia ...
Yeah, they looked a bit odd.

A shame, really....no sense of artistry involved at all.

That’s what I was thinking. What happened to the smooth curves?? Fancy Camero. No thanks.

“Cadillac CTS”
Drove one. It was clunky. Terrible ride. Not smooth and quiet at all.

The one mark Hamill built as a school project in Corvette Summer was RHD. Also had the stationary rectangular headlights, but some seriously ugly scoops and louvers and a big ol' beak in the front.
Still, somebody stole it. Never understood why anybody would.

“....It looks fat with the high beltline ...”
to match the rest of population.
Seriously, having been in auto industry 18+ years.....US design teams can only copy any more.
and in retro cars some of those aren't really retro....
