ismaelg Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Hello, Here is another build from last year. Instead of your usual nicely loaded car, I wanted to do something different: A plain Jane, plain vanilla, cheap (relative) base model C6. So I modified the kit for a base 2005 model. Why would you do that? This could be either: - A car you would buy to modify extensively either for racing or customizing (show car, aftermarket demonstrator etc) - A dealer "bait" car to advertise "Brand new 2005 Corvettes starting at only $$$$" - A car you die for but can not afford, so you go to extremes to get it The important thing about this model is not what it has, but it does not: -NO body colored door handles. - No body colored 3rd brake lamp - Base 1SX Ebony seats, NOT 1SA or 1SB sport seats. - White paint. NOT extra cost paint like LeMans blue, Millenium Yellow or Magnetic red. - NO 1SB Heads Up Display (HUD). - NO F55 magnetic selective ride control option (knob behind shifter) - No navigation system - NO XM radio - NO CC3 transparent optional roof. Just the regular painted one. - Standard aluminum wheels. NOT QG7 polished or QX1 competition grey, or chrome. - Standard brakes with NO upgraded rotors from Z51 suspension option.

Zoom Zoom Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Still think this is my favorite C6 from the Gonzalez Garage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarylH Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Just the thought of a "cheap" C6 is making me smile! Vettes always look good in white to me. Very tasty in vanilla......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
