Ugly car...Nice performance.

2400 HP Corvette. 0-60 in 1 second. 1/4 mile at 210 mph

Only bad part, its kind of ugly and it's not the newer style vette.

Meh.
Never was a huge fan of the older corvette's and it sounds like someone who was in a 'my dick is bigger than yours' competition.

While having a nice performing vehicle, I'd rather not feel like I'm being launched off an aircraft carrier.

1 second, good God. That would make the Veyron look like a Toyota Corolla and an M3 like a Yugo.

I normally hate cars like that, but for some reason kind of like that one, looks like everything was done very well and with a lot of thought. Not my cup of tea and I certainly wouldn't put 7 years of my life into it, but pretty cool none the less.

Still, I would prefer a stock '63 split window to that car-- way too modded for my tastes.

A lot of that is thanks to those super tall wrinkle walls. Without them, he'll probably spin through the entire 1/4. My favorite older Vette has to be the C3 but that's a nice project nonetheless.

Not sure that I would call a '69 Vette ugly.

Sweet ride though. That's pretty damn quick!
