New Callaway Corvette C16 Cabrio

So, I'm a corvette fan, especially the new ones. The engine is an LS2 V8 that produces 616 horsepower and 582ft.lbs. of torque and they also offer a 560hp "base" engine package if 616 is too much power (wussies!). According to Callaway, it should go 0-60in 3.5 seconds and run a 11-second 1/4 mile. The car is going to start at $128k.

I love the interior...Callaway's tweaks on the outside...not so much Not that I have much taste...I own a MkIV after all and many think they are boring looking cars too. I like the factory lines on the C6...all accept the headlights. Too bad Callaway made them more pronounced

It looks like the front is borrowing a bit from the older camaro and the rear looks like a Maserati influence.

Yeah id have to agree im not down with the front the new Z06 is just way sexier, but the 616hp LS2 sounds damn good.

I'm not much of a fan of the outside but I like the look of the inside and powertrain. I personaly like the look of the c5 over the c6 but thats just me.

Yah, i agree. I like the C5 with the pop-up head lights.. It just looks cleaner (with the headlights hidden).

I would have to agree with JoeThaMan on the headlights.
