Default C6 Zo6 "FRC"

Dont get me wrong here, I love the new 06' Zo6 but, I wish they would have kept true to the "FRC" (fixed roof corvette) or hardtop style rather than the large back window.
Not sure if anyone has seen this photoshopped pic. I found this when the c6 first came out:
What do you think???

Looks awesome, hard to argue with you on the FRC. Maybe they're saving that for next year or something...

The back 18 inches of the car are what is wrong with it, IMO. The rest of the car is beautiful. Its like they got to the back and couldn't quite keep the elegant lines going. Performance wise nothing better. Cool car.

I've always liked the FRC version.

Word around the campfire is the FRC design was not used due to aerodynamic isssues.

That looks pretty good but the wheels stink.

could use a deep dish 19"/20" back wheel to really make the car stand out.
