I saw this car last Sunday . Good bodywork . Had some calipers ( pre production) that I really liked .
Color is unique
Leagal to call it a Rossi ..? Valentino know about this ?

Like a train wreck -- I had to go back and take a second look. Funny - because this time around... I couldn't help think that the designers at GM have done a pretty good job bringing the Corvette along... Where as the Rossi - (to me) looks like what it is... somebody trying desperately to capture every OLD styling cue while "modernizing" it at the same time.

We hang out at the XXX (Rootbeer not porn) - on Saturday afternoons... and a guy pulled in with the '62' version of the C5... and as a group (8 or 9 of us) all said the same thing. If you like a '62 vette - then just buy one. If you want modern driving then just buy a new Vette... 'cause this guy spent $150 grand for a car that has ZERO resale value... and he could have had a real '62 and a new Vette for the same money! :rofl: True! $100K will get you a decently restored '62 and a new Vette is close to $50K (okay maybe more like 60)...

Hybrid
 

There were 2-3 of the C5/6 hybrid cars at a local car show last weekend. My wife looked at one and asked "why"? A buddy saw one and thought it was great. Is there really a market for these things? As Greg says why buy a new C6 and spend another 100K to bastardize it? I guess there is a safety upgrade over modifying an old Corvette with a modern chassis and drivetrain. The cost is the same, resale on the old one has to be alot higher though.

Nick

but what if he has only enough room for one car in his garage?

If that's the case -- then "he's" not going to buy ANY of this stuff.... :rofl: :cheers: :woot:

I like it, but I still think the C3R was the best "retro" design idea.
