Photoshopped? :confused:

I doubt it's a photoshop job, but I supposed you could always contact Veneklasen Auto Parts in Chicago to verify if you were really curious. Maybe someone was partying a little too much in the back ;), or it was an assassination attempt on a high profile passenger, or just vandalism. Hopefully no one was hurt when it went down.
 
I agree with Neo. Its photoshopped..

Look at the first 2 pics behind the door. The nice new shiny front end of the C5 doesn't match the primered looking off-white of the rest of the car.. Its a bad job if you ask me.
 
The wheels do match though. What kind of limo would have those wheels?

Aren't those Corvette wheels?

Hey Dreamer,

You are right. The wheels match.

It could've been a Vette or had vette knock off wheels..

My opinion is that the photoshopped part of the image is the nice shiny part of the car from the door forward. It does not look like the original front end that was in the picture.
 
I actually don't know if it's photoshopped. i pulled it off another webforum. If it is, it's a good job.

the one thing that doesn't seem consistant to me is the shadow underneath the car.... but i honestly don't know. Didn't Mr.wolf have a corvette limo?
 
That picture of the burnt out white Vette limo can also be found on the last page (140) of the February 2004 issue of Car and Driver. Taken by David Spykerman in Holland, Michigan.
 
after looking at <B>Kinan</B>'s pictures, i tend to believe this is a legit photo. For me, msgott and JaysNSX's comments on the door positioning made me believe this was tampered with. But in the attached photo you can clearly see the door positioning matches. There is also a black smudge on the top of the roof towards the front on both photos; possibly a sunroof?

So yeah, i'll stick my neck out and say it's a legit photo.
If it is photoshopped, i swear i had nothing to do with it! :D

Ya I believe it's real too. These days you can never be too sure about a photo, but there's something in my gut that tells me this photo is genuine.
