Default BKUPER's latest C6

Here's Brian Kuper's latest. Cfour, it has the "8" on the side tail lights .....




I'm sure you noticed the shortened (again) rear facia that slants in circa C2 and its nice to see a C5 back there rather than that once to be a Mustang replcement Prob

That looks great! He did a very nice job. If the real-deal turns out to look like this, then I'm going to have to put myself in debt....again!

I have no complaints about that image, but I do hope that the back end looks somehow different. I don't know how to explain it, but it somehow rubs me wrong. Maybe a different taper or concave/convex look would be better. Does anyone know how close this is to the real thing?

I know what you mean, LMN8R,

For some reason, in his pictures (they all use that same basic pic), with that angle, the car looks like a wedge. The back end looks too high. When you look at the other camo pics of the parked mules, the back end looks much nicer and lower. I think it is just the way this picture is angled.

Returning a favor

Had an email today stating that the taillights on the Orange C6 were "right on target".

He also stated the he is no longer able to post here on the CAC,
but is still available via email if anyone wants to direct any questions or comments his way.

With the apparent C3 design cues showing up in the C6, maybe the C3s will catch fire in the market place!!! Hey all you guys that insist on popups, a good clean C3 is your answer for a fraction of the price!!

Don't Worry, the back end is not so angular.

That version certainly looks like a shorter wheelbase. I heard the C-6 would be longer. It is interesting. Not altogether repulsive.
