The standard Targa looks way better than the FRC. Plus this shape is the normal Corvette shape for the last few decades.

+1,000,000 I really prefer the "stretched" out back glass of the normal model to the bubble shaped glass of the others, it just flows more naturally.

wish I had the money for one of these in this color, it would complete my collection, LOL.

If you want to use that logic, Corvette came first so the F-body looks like a Corvette and not the other way around.
