I wish I could reach through my monitor and punch every dumbass jerkoff who calls the Corvette a muscle car.

 

imo the corvette was more of a muscle car during the mid 60s to early 70s than a sports car, especially if it's got a 427 in it.

I just got hardtop Classic, and I repainted it to match the silver blue production color on the 63 vettes.

 

I was wondering whether it would look good with white wall tires?

 

I did the same classic blue, man. Looks good.

 

F*ck. I really want one of these, but I need to make space for one. Should I replace my Roosevelt, Felon or Jester?

 

I also just realized it reminds me of the San Marino from Driver Parallel Lines.

-freaking IGCD bullsh*t got rid of the image. if you know what it looks like, then you get a cookie. if not, it's a cheap ripoff of the C2 'Vette. -

 

Felon or Jester, either one. Or both, to fit in the hardtop and drop top version.

 

What do you guys think of mine?

Rather tame of you, all things considered. But what I think of it is that it is still ugly as sin with what you do to it nonetheless.

 

 

 

Wish I could post pics but I use a phone to post on these forums.

Thank you BlackAce

 

 

 

Nice, went with the classic look like I did.

 

Anyway, here is my Invetero Coquette Classic

I based mine off of the 1968 Corvette Stingray

I just may put the text on the tires of mine. I also do not get why people put sh*tty ass low profile rims on cars like this. Lack of taste, I say.

The rear window on the hardtop is ugly, and that lead me to my decision to purchase the topless version.

 

yeah there's a little too much jaguar XKE and not enough C2 in the coupe version.

Very nice. I keep taking the text on and off I can't decide.

Omg people. It looks like a '63 split window coupe Corvette... So obvious. From the body's contour lines and wheel flares (less prevalent than C3s as I personally have the 25th anniversary edition '78) to the back end. They only slightly modified it as per usual GTA iterations of real cars

The Corvette's a sports car. Just because it's classic American car with performance orientation doesn't make it a muscle car.

THANK YOU!!! JESUS!

 

I really wish I didn't love cars. It would be simpler. I could just paint my coquette red and say... It looks like radio flyer!! LMFAO!!

LOL i know it's based on a 63 split window, but the rear 1/4 and roof line definitely has some XKE influences.

Except for one thing. The average 60's/70's sports car was a muscle car (except the vette and cobra). Camero's and Mustangs are sports cars, but you'll see plenty going between the lights. Trans Am was the main fixture for sports cars in the US and if you look at the roster most of the competing cars were muscle cars with decent suspension and a diet. Muscle basically diverged in the 60's/70's into Hot Rods and Trans Ams. Rodding was quicker and cheaper, but Trans Am was proper and more lucrative.

 

 

In any case here is my Croquette

Well, like all Sports Classics, this has f*cked offset when you put custom wheels on it. I kept mine stock looking, apart from a front lip and the Aluminum Tips. Great car though, still love it!

 

^ And for the record, the Camaro/Mustang/Challenger/'Cuda/Javelin are considered Pony Cars, not Muscle Cars.

True. Muscle were big bore, 4 seat, 500cubic monsters like the Charger and Cyclone. King Muscle was the Superbird (God Bless Petty)

Yeah, cars like the Fairlane/Galaxy/Charger/Chevelle/Biscayne/Rebel Machine/GTO etc... were considered Muscle Cars.

For me the side profile of the hardtop gives off a Shelby Daytona vibe which I think is awesome

Wish Rockstar would have someone creative employed so we would be able to mod our Corvette in this Corvette Summer style.

Is no one else wondering why this corqette sounds rather like a low reving Grotti instead of a roaring V8? It's driving me nuts to drive with a V6 Corvette..

It's an Italian V8, not a V6. It sounds very similar to the engine in the Stinger GT, which is supposed to be a '62 250 GTO. Granted that engine had a V12, but there's Ferrari-built V8's that sound like the engine in the CC.

Yeah those Ferrari V8. That's why i wrote it sounds like a Grotti (Ferrari). But a 7L V8 in a Corvette should sound more muscle-ish, otherwise it feels like a V6. That's what I meant.

 

That's why imo the sounds doesn't fit the car.

Yeah I agree. I feel like the car should have a deep rumble, like the Pheonix or even better, the Vigero (it's a Camaro, would make sense to have a Camaro engine in a Corvette) but I digress, it sounds radical how it is now!

I tried something, but I dont know...why they didn't make a option for primary color hood, it's just doesn't fit.

Better than a lot I've seen.

 

I wonder why the hardtop used in races looks different? It's a mix of both.

How does it compare to others in its class for racing such as the Monroe, z-type, pigalle etc

HELLO?

 

I raced two Monroes and won but it was pretty even. But I felt a slight advantage.

You're wrong dude. The secondary hood comes as standart, custom hood is the carbon one. There is no primary hood, and that sucks.

 

@king: that should be a normal sea green or sea blue. I am not a fan of customizing colors 2 hours long. I am pleased with stock colors.
