Default Nicest CRC C5 Ive Ever Seen

Went to Bobs Big Boy last night and saw this...the cleanest looking CRC C5 Ive ever seen. I wasnt a big fan of the idea but in person it was pretty sharp. I was impressed I must admit.

The cold air intake system built in to the hood of the car is really trick. This isnt some cheap kit car. The fit n finish was factory oem quality. Very nice. As an engineer I appreiciate the work that would go into a project like this. The note on the windshield said it took $1.2M to develop the car, and it looks it.

It is really nice!

....But not for $1.2M. I would definitely be rolling a UGR twin turbo lambo for that price.

Thats what it cost to design and develop the car. The kit itself starts at around $69,800.

I have seen a bunch of those at the barrett-jackson and mecum auctions. I dont get why they go for $90k, i mean they look ok, but you still have the busy and cheap C5 interior. I would much rather get a '61 corvette and put an LS series motor in it.

If they did a split window version of the C6 hard top (like what was done on 'Chop cut rebuild', except with a real split window rather an a window cover) then I could see spending $90k.
