Default So I was driving behind a regular C4 yesterday...

and it looked so.....narrow! How do people even get excited about the regular coupe? Guess I got used to the way the widebody looks... that is all.

Because you could buy two regular coupes for the price of one ZR-1!!!

I meant the looks, haha. Regular coupes handle well and are more balanced, and for the price are kind of fun. I had to upgrade my old 95 because BMW's used to pick on me too much.

I remember seeing my first ZR-1 in person going down the highway in front of me. The rear end was as strikingly different as the C7 is to us now but in a good way. The width was profoundly attractive to me. It just stood out and is still impressive. No fake louver or hood change in any other past vett has done that too me except the first time I saw a 73 vett with it's longer front end but still chrome bumper on the back.
The 90 ZR-1 had a body still that didn't look like a European jogging shoe
and still is my favorite.

Almost like when women ask do these jeans make my a** look big?

Our cars ask, "Does this "ZR-1" emblem make my a** look big?"
