Default Who has some pics of Callaway C8s?

I'm looking for somebody with pics of Callaway C8 Camaros. But not just the same old ones on google or webshots. I'm wondering if anybody here has seen one and taken a few pics.

Do you happen to know what that circular emblem is on the nose of the car? The C8 emblem had wings similar to the Aston Martin logo, so that's not it. I heard that that blue C8 had been supercharged recently, but it was just a rumor.

I have no idea. You'll notice the lack of headlight covers. Maybe this is an early kit and they used a round emblem? I'm just guessing.

It does look very functional, but I think function without aesthetics can look bad. If you want to see function that looks good, check out Callaways newwer cars.

Yes, they do. Google C12 or C16 or just go to Callaways site.

I don't know a ton about this blue one, but I have pictures of it from years previously, and this is the first picture I've seen of it with the round circle on the front.

As far as I know, this car doesn't have the Callaway 383ci engine, but I did hear recently that it might have been supercharged. I think the car is located in Canada...

It doesn't have the headlight covers because the headlight covers were found to not fit well supposedly, and they collected moisture under them, so they were only used on the first few cars. I've also heard a rumor that a few cracked from the screws holding them in, but I don't know how much truth there is to that. I've only seen one car with visible screws, so I think they were put in after purchase...

If anybody else has pictures to show, I'd love to see them.
