Damm, he broke his side mirror. ;35

Why is there only mud in the two outside exhaust pipes and not the middle two. Are the outside ones dummys?

Two of them work 100% of the time, while the other two are operated by a solenoid to open under certain acceleration conditions. You can see the butterflies in the first pic.

Funnily enough, I think the ones that are always open are blocked. :p

hmmmm.... The car has a Chevrolet dealer's trade plates on it.

So look out on eBay for ...

"C6 CORVETTE - ONE ONLY - LOW MILEAGE DEMO!!!! ... Immaculate Interior. Low Reserve. First to see will buy. Use the 'Buy Now' option and don't miss out."

I'll dig up the story when I have time but it turns out the car isn't a demonstrator. Apparently if you look you can see permits and/or stickers inside the front windscreen.

I call dibs on the LS7. ;46

Okay VO.. to save ya the time... lets drop the word "DEMO" and change "ONE ONLY" to "UNIQUE" .... :-)

but at the end of the day some Twit wrote off a Work of Art... and to the relief of the salesman after he/she had signed the papers.

Not bad for a fibre glass ;41

You don't often get a chance to see the underside of these things, they sure are flat.
Still running leaf springs front and back. I'm guessing those bulges after the extractors are the cats??

OOPS!

In the States they are just another new car for a lot of enthusiasts. Guys buy them for four years and trade them in for the next model without a second thought in many cases, I guess thats a by-product of not having to jump through all sorts of hoops to buy a Vette over there. ;40

The Z07/ZR1/SS will supposedly have 650hp to keep up with the Vipers current 600hp. ;31

Possibly. They aren't stock extractors either as far as I can see.
