Very nice! Thanks MC!

Taillights will probably kill it for me. Really have to see it in person though

How long before we will see an aftermarket rear bumper + tail light combo? We should just start designing one right now, we'd make so much money :icon17:

All we'd really have to do is make round tail lights and replicate the factory bumper to fit them.

Fix the interior and I'll buy a CPO in a year or two if they are gremlin free in a heartbeat!

Maybe not, but you can spend that $20k difference in price to make the 5.0 outperform the C7.

Meh.

It still won't touch it.

It may handle as well, but it will ride like a log wagon. It may accelerate as hard, but it will get crap for mileage or be quirky (melt pistons).

I'm over modifying OEM vehicles.

We won't know for sure until final details are revealed. I'm just getting started with modifying cars :icon17:

I like how they went the LF-A route and did a digital RPM gauge.

Side profile looks good.

And yes 4 circular tail lights would have been better, but these square ones look nice as well

I tried to like modified stuff, but beyond a catback, or shocks/struts, I just can't get into it. It "unbalances" the factory package unless you have a LOT of money to dedicate to the project.

b1adesofcha0s 12-25-2012 08:23 PM

Yeah I've just done bolt ons, springs, and sways on the Z. Probably won't do too much more on my next car.

It won't be that nice . Sure , the engine will rock but there will be tons of cheap plastic in the interior and same old corvette ******** .. C'mon , it's going to be 2013 and they still can't get it right ... I will pass ..

The only issue I had with my Z06 was the interior. The handling dynamics were amazing compared to my 370Z Sport, and the transmission was much smoother. It was a much more precise suspension that somehow handled better on rough roads in corners, even with the run-flats. Obviously power wasn't an issue.

However, GM has come right out and admitted that the C6 interior was an embarrassment, and we know GM can make an interior (Cadillac CTS-V has a nice one, IMO.

I'm holding off on casting my stones until I see it.

I thought my C6 interior was as good as my 350z, and about on par with the 370. Maybe I'm just not too picky.

I feel this way too. Materials are pretty good. It's just the design that is lacking... but that's largely subjective.

I, for one, find the 370Z's interior a bit tacky, albeit well made. :icon17:
