The car is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Corvette at the 24-Hours of La Mans and as the name implies there is plenty of carbon fiber smattered throughout the car. Included in the parts being composed of the lightweight material are the rocker panels, the engine cover, and steering wheel emblem. Even the transmission syncros are carbon coated. The limited Vette is finished off with black out head lamps, side mirrors, and black spoke rims complimented with numbering that looks almost Euro-style.
I find the shape of the bootlid and the V-shaped side intakes to be quite pleasing to the eye, but the ugly Dodge Viper / Ferrari 458 Italia taillights don’t fit the car at all. Also, the front end styling is a bit too conservative and I feel that more could have been done with the glasshouse. The overall design is good but it’s hard to say if that’s due to Mr. Robbins’ tweaking or the C6’s nice proportions.
