Not too crazy about it, the graphics are a little much IMHO...

Just got back from FL this week and I swear every other Corvette I saw had that yellow/black paint scheme.

GT1 is something suited for a VW, not a Vette.

GT1 is the name of the class Corvette has won several championships in American LeMans Series

The sad thing is this year they are moving to GT2

wheels look cheap, black would have been better and the whole paint scheme is a bit ricey. Only thing I like it the lip spoiler on the back. Not to mention, i am pretty sure everyone will know it is a corvette, you don't need a banner on the front windshield that says "CORVETTE".

It's just a glorified C6 Z06 with a higher sticker.
