I have no passion for that car! It just gets the job done I want. The viper has always had a special place in my heart. The new ACR is very cool. I think an all black one would be bad ass. But, I give chevy props for this car. And the comment about you was just a joke. I think your love for the 1 series is...cute!
j/k
Haha, i know you were kidding. Your lucky your on the opposite side of the U.S. E-man!!

Thats actually the logo from the badboyvettes.com forum. They used the logo on the C6Rs at Laguna Seca.

Not digging the window on the hood. I honestly find it a bit cheesy even on a Ferrari and no better here.

I wish wish wish they would replace the steering wheel air bag cover. The wheel is fine but that one interior part is Cobalt grade at best. The rest is really good.

I love the logo on the air intake... and just about every thing else.... but I would still be content with a standard C6.

That car is NASTY! And I mean that in a good way.

Edit: Man, if they're making cars like this now (Z06, GT-R, M3, ZR-1, Viper, R8, GT3) for a relatively affordable ticket into supercar territory, I can't wait to see what cars will be available when I'm 30yo (10 years from now)

I'm gonna have me a 550bhp LS4 C7 for 40k
