hmmm... the Red car has 2 pipes but this white one has 4

Me after seeing these pics:


That color looks GREAT! One thing I noticed that the rumors were wrong about was that the tailights don't seem to be flush with the body. Not that I care one way or the other, just one detail I remember reading somewhere. Looks great!

It looks a lot like a C5. Still looks good though.

For those wanting a c6, save your money and go with a 02/03 C5 z06. Should have the same Hp as the base c6, handling should be just as good if not better than the regular c6, and it should be A LOT cheaper.

02/03 Z06 is on my wish list. Just waiting for them to come down in price.
lol....

i couldn't wait... But whenever the C6 z06 comes out i'll trade this one. can't wait to see it in blue.

Wow!!!
The car looks great in those pics. I hope the rest of the car looks as "sleek" as these pics show. I like the way they've improved the profile and the changes to the side vents.

I'm really loving the side profile!! I'm not much of a red color fan, but that torch red looks sick the way the light and shadow bounces off the curve!

What I can see on of the back, its good too.

Front, I'm going to have to see more of, but so for it looks good.

Its hard to tell, but are the front brake calipers still same caliper's as the C5?

I was thinking the same thing, but I couldnt put my damn finger on it. You hit it right on the head.

It seems like the C6 gets better every day I guess we should expect this from the GM halo, as it should move more upscale as all the other cars (Except the Daewoos!) get better, too.

They look cross-drilled to me!

Hmm . . . Viperette . . .

Seriously, though, it looks a lot better than the soft C5, though I think I'll have to see it and drive it in person to see if it gets my money.

Hopefully the ZL1 version is real . . . and hopefully the budget for that car includes some unique appearance items, like a different front and rear fascia (and wider fenders?).

Another thing I like about the cars is that it has more lines and seems more angular than rounded as the C5s are.
