Those fit nice, good looking vette. what are the wheels off of?

nice n simple bro..

will look good on luxuries but too conservative for vette...maybe something with 5 spokes

Very nice. I agree it looks odd, but it's quite nice.

i think they need to be sportyer looking, like BBS wheels

Wheels - A+

So you're saying that you give the C6 an "F", because you feel the headlights resemble that of a Viper SRT-10? What good reason do you have to hate the Corvette, especially the C6, which comes standard with the LS2? In case you didn't know, the LS2 has approximately 400 horsepower and 400 foot/lbs of torque. Not to mention that the car has superb handling and pulls a 0.96 on the skidpad (Maybe that was the latest Z06 that pulls 0.96, not entirely sure). Anyways, that's not bad for standard equipment if you ask me. But I suppose the headlights make this an inferior car.

Anyways, I am very sorry to everyone else for going off-topic like that, but I just wanted to say that I agree that those wheels look too refined for a Corvette, and something like a 5 spoke design could look quite nice.

Thanks for the comments guys! I agree with MC04 to an extent, the C6 takes alot of design elements from other cars, including the SRT-10 and the 360 Modena. I don't see how this makes it a bad car though.

These are actually the sportiest rims I have right now. My selection of 20" DUBs is running a bit low right now.

Clean, even though I dislike Domestics.

Ummm so the car is given an "F" cause they "resemble" the headlights of the OLD viper, it may look like viper headlights on the model, but have you SEEN a real C6 they look nothing like the viper headlights. And ummm, how can you dislike a car with THAT much horsepower STOCK. BTW wheels look ok, IDK maybe it could use some type of racing rims.

First off, nice rims. They looks great cept maybe 5 spokes would look better,and you need the C6 convert with those rims.


secondly,, having seen both 360 modenas and Srt-10 vipers in person and also having seen the C6 in person the headlights look very different. But everyone has opinions.

yea, it has good numbers, but who has 45 G to spend on a "fun" car? It can't even old 2 golf bags in the trunk! I mean, its a SPORTSCAR, it costs 50 g, ( some where between 40-55 G, 55 G, for Conv. ) & all it has is numbers!
I mean, its a nice car, but the Flip-up headlights are what MADE/BREAKED the Corvette, Getting rid of those is about like a mustang loseing its Pony :-/, All-in-all the C6 is a sportscar, Not a daily-driver, You can't travel in it ( Sum may want to ? ), It can't have very good gas-mileage, Maybe thats why its not on their site? o well, these are just my thoughts, not trying to start a fight, fact is, i'm a Ford Guy, & Chevy's are fords rivals, Please no wity re-torts like " O chevy is so much better than ford " because that will just start a war.

Actually, my daily driver is a C5 vette, and i can fit 2 golf bags easily in the back, the first vettes didnt have flip-ups, so that Made-Breaked argument doesnt work. Trips are not bad at all, on the highway i get 28-30 mpg, thats pretty good for anycar. Yes i am a Chevy guy but i like some Fords as well, and this is not starting a war,

But thats not what this thread is about its bout,
Gafoto, did you paint the seats red or did they come like that??

Hey Kyle, the seats were originally tan and were painted GM Victory Red, I polished them a little bit to get a semi-gloss effect. They're supposed to look like leather.

We're talking about the C6 , Not C5 :-/

The C5 and C6 are very similar in interior room, cargo room, and gas mileage :smokin:
