Since I saw the first pictures of the C6 I thought it looked like a Viper. Companies are stealing styling ideas from each other all the time now.

At a glance I mistook a C6 for one awhile back.

But, on closer inspection the Viper and C6 have more similiarities.

If auto companies have to steal each others ideas and designs then we must not have much talent in design any longer.

Am I wrong or is that the steering wheel on the right side of that Viper?

wasnt lutz at dodge and helped to engineer the viper. now he is at gm. if you want to say it looks like a viper it is merely lutz bringing his original styling cues to the table and yes it looks alot more like the ferrari.

the headlights on both the viper and the z06 look bitten from the 360 modena. companies stealing styling from each other has been going on decades, nothing new.

that will make us go to one conclusion ..... we all (black white asians ...)will go back at one point to ape looking . (not a theory it is a fact) cuz all cars are coming to almost one design.

Yah, it would go back to looking like an FD which we all know was the design GM ripped off for the C5.
