Corvette vs NSX

[martin]

Hi

Took some photos of a friends Corvette. Nice car, but it looks a little bit strange compared to the smooth lines of the NSX.

He has some aftermarket exhaust that are supposed to give about 25 extra hp. Would be about 276HP..but it is heavier than the NSX.

Enjoy

Regards

I'm sure to get flamed for this, but I actually like the front end of the C-5 better. It seems to have a little smoother lines, the back end is a different story though.

I dunno. Both looks nice. I'll have both then. One front engine and one mid-engine. To complete the package I'll get a Porsche GT3 for rear engine. Hehe

I agree C-5 have smoother lines than NSX, looks like mazda RX-7 front end I like the tail light of covette, wonder how it looks, if its on nsx ?? any "photoshop Xpert" here?

reinforces my taste for the nsx, a new front bar does wonders!

Big rims and lowered black corvette wouldnt be so bad. Ive seen a few here in Japan. They love their american imports!

Yeah AJ, I always wondered if there is an "import scene" in Japan. LOL. How many Vettes do you see? How about Vipers or 'Stangs or Camaros? How are these cars viewed in the Pacific Rim???

Yep theres an import scene here in Japan not as big as the Japanese car scene though.

Near my house there are several new mustangs, a white corvette (97+), an older late eighties pontiac. A lime green late eighties corvette (A team style)

The have a few american muscle car days (the hondas and such have started creeping in) so the scene is alive and well.

Many lowrider style cars are popular here to. If you seen most of the streets?car parks in Japan you would wonder as i do where the hell they keep these cars!
