I don't think its ricey by any means, it looks great. And with the amount of power it makes and the size of the motor, i bet it rides smoother than a stock C6.

I think it looks pretty damn good! The louvers and the widened rear fenders look pretty darn aggressive, especially with the size of the brake ducts! My eyes wander over the radical hood vents just above the headlights that retract to the window and wonder.. hmm? But, I wouldn't say the feature is subtractive to the overall 'ooh" effect at all. I guess it gives it a 'super car' feel.. or something The wheels are down right stunning, and I just love the way they setup to the body, making the stance look perfect. The son of a bitch even has a 500ci v8 pumping 600bhp, 600ftq! Seats inside look great, but the interior design otherwise is kind of plain and left alone. I think the red accents look rather homosexual, especially on the steering wheel. That stock steering wheel wasn't that pretty to begin with, so I'd like to have seen something different (like the gorgeous wheels!). Pretty sweet... I'll take one.

ps. Rice isn't involved when there are 500ci powering 600/600

It would be cool if they offered a super lightweight "clubsport"/track version (but still "street legal"/registerable) with a tastefully "gutted" interior (no radio, ac, leather, airbags [if possible] electronics, etc. {save for a Pi digital dash/datalogger}) featherweight Recaro RPG, or Sparco S Light CF seats, and other weight reduction measures (to get it down below 2700 pounds).

This thing would be quite sick with that kind of weight, and would be capable of destroying full weight, 1000rwhp Poopras, even on "their" highway runs!! (Don't even think about the "twisties" in your TOYotas )

yeah the ultima is around 600 bhp i think. The SSC Ultimate Aero TT is just ridiculous, 2750 lbs, 1138bhp and top speed of like 280mph, they are still testing as I understand. It was made specifically to rape a bugatti veyron.

Hmm... dailydriver, I love that idea man.

Ford now has 3 mustang track only variants.
Chevy could surely take a base C6, and make a pretty sweet clubsport edition out of it.

I think it'd be well worth the cost, and it'd probably be a home run hit.
