ugly, and uglier sounding

700hp car, it sounds like a 10hp electric gokart

Re: 2008 Callaway Corvette C16

Corvette needs to come out with a radical redesign, I mean everything engine, tranny. The whole thing should be redesigned, also they should stop cost cutting on the thing. Also a buddy of mine has a Vette and it has the worst looking interior ever, also sub-par handling. I'm not bashing Vettes, the car has alot of potencial. (Make it smaller + faster I say)

that's not the concept... i THOUGHT it was a concept...

that is THE car from that video... Concours d'Elegance - Pebble Beach. HWY 1 is our main highway here, and flows down along the Big Sur coast where the video was filmed...about 30 minutes from my house.
