nice...

The front end does not look clean, still contains clunky interior plastic in their flagship car, not to mention too many angles stifling the cars potential...just looks unfinished and a viper clone to boot (the viper engineers would agree)

but I prefer my firehawk

I'm in love...

Shiny wheels can be bought later, or the factories could be chromed

Besides, I know a good home for one of those 7.0l LS7's (Between my fenders :lol )

I like the styling better than the regular C6 and I think it will just be a matter of time before the new styling grows on me. I still prefer the looks of the C5 (especially the FRC/Z06), however. I plan on keeping my '04 Z06 and skipping the C6 generation. By the time the C7 comes out I'll be ready for an upgrade (or maybe just an addition).
