>haha what if we made the 5th gen corvette the single best one except we're gonna make it butt fucking ugly for no reasonseriously what the fuck was their problem? every other gen before and since has looked beautiful and cars in general looked quite good in the 90s, they really just went and fucked this one up for the kek of it
>>27630910What? 5th Gen looks fine. Maybe if you weren't looking at ones that are all niggered up with a bunch of bodykit garbage and fag lights.
>>27631003the based energy radiating off this post is incredibly strong
>>27630910besides the nsxwhat other good looking cars came out in 1997 through 2004
fpbp
>>27631008
>>27631003I intentionally looked for the worst example I could if that somehow wasn't obvious but they all look shit either way
>>27631008turns out, most of em
>>27631016Okay retard
i wasnt trying to defend the corvette, just that the late 90's didnt give us the best of automotive design>>27631014ugly, weird proportions >>27631020>bmwonly the 355 ferrari of that listnissan s15 is another good one
>C4's ass is its best beature>C6's ass is its best feature>C5's ass is its worst featureHow is that even possible when they all have the same ass?
>>27631038And here's me thinking I'd be the one with the worst taste in the thread
>>27631020>400R not circledI am disappointed
>>27631270looks like a riced out shitbox.
>>27631014These things look like clown shoes from the back, and retarded salamanders from the front. There's literally no way you can look at the inbred dodge stratus front end and think "yeah this car looks SICK and AGGRESSIVE". They very much cleaned them up with the following gens' styling, but the initial designs looked stupid
>>27631427True. Over rated.
>>27631427Zoomer: The Post
>>27631427holy shit taste
>>27632213>>27632243Nah gen 1 is fucking ugly, I agree with him.Other gens look much better
>>27632424Gen 3/4 has the most fucked up proportions of every viper, it looks bloated, worst side profile of all of them too. Its only redeeming features were the return of the sidepipes and its headlights.
>>27631016Pic related. >>27631016While you circled some '97 MY cars, those are early 90s and late 80s designs.
>>27632777Second part of that was meant for >>27631020
Hey, everybody can have their own opinionAnd in my opinion the C5 is the best looking corvette ever built
>>27634997i prefer the c2, but yeah c5 is a definitely a looker
I am now going to post more pics of this sexy model of a vette
>>27630910corvette beautiful fucking rly ? First two generations did look decent at best . Everything from C3 looks like ugly trash . Ending with one of most ugliest cars ever made C8 .
>>27631014Looking ass
>>27630910Are you blind? The c5 is the best looking oneC6 is the most reliable except the z06 engines
>>27632435HOLY B-B-B-BASED
>>27632759It only looks bloated to you cause the first few were literally shaped like a kinked clown shoe. The 3rd and 4th gens were actually the only normal looking cars. The basically had corvette style proportions with a little extra hood length. Similar to modern amg gt cars. I can't for the life of me look at this thing and not think it looks like a salamander with down syndrome though. I don't know how else to describe the bubbly lines and blunt ended face with its vegged out headlights>>27632213You're 100% a zoomer if you're obsessing over the viper. None of the racing heritage was made common knowledge to americans. It got next to no exposure, and its entire identity was based around its v10. If you think its somehow a zoomer opinion that the first 2 viper gens were retarded looking, thats your problem for thinking performance = looks
>>27635222merc amg is ugly afgen 1 snek is by far the prettiest
>>27631014Same thing
>>27635243Looks are subjective. The later vipers definitely had the same proportions to the amg gt. The problem for me with the early gens especially is the crease in the middle. Its not very aesthetically pleasing to have a car that bends down and then up again to the windshield. It looks thicker at the very front and then thinning out before getting thicker again. Its like if I lifted it up, it'd sag down at the front like a limp spoon
>>27632759You are incorrect about the proportions. Same basic chassis, numbnuts.
>>27635255> The AMG GT had the same proportions to the Viper (FTFY).Guess where the basics for the AMG GT came from, bet DaimlerChrysler could tell you..The raised front arch (and thus downward bonnet line), came from it's influence, picrel.
>>27635291The raised front arch on the viper woulda went well if it didn't have the huge oblong vent that makes it look like 2 slabs slapped together. The car has a very goofy profile. They should've went full corvette mode and made it a wedge from the beginning. 50s and 60s engineers knew how to design stuff when they'd have curves flow the length of the car and taper to the rear.
Am I the only one who thinks the C5 looks a little similar to the old BMW 850?
>>27630910You're thinking of the C6 retard.
>>27635330>The car has a very goofy profileJust like you.
>>27635255>doesnt appreciate airflow elements being incorporated into larger body lineplebshit
5th gen best gen. 4th is an abortion.
>>27635222They are the blandest looking ones for me, the 3/4 looks like if someone took a rectangle, rounded the borders and plastered a really small viper bubble on top, almost no curves nor harmony between them, and further distances it from its design inspirations on the shelby cobra and daytona. But I digress, in my eyes there are no truly ugly looking vipers.
>>27635550C4 can be cool too
>>27631003basedfor me it's a C5 FRC/Z06 in Lemans Blue>>27634997>ccw classicsunderrated wheel>>27635339after 10 beers, maybe
>>27631270Japcrap doesn't qualify
>>27631008fuck islam
>>27639350Would look good if the shock replacement weren't long overdue, why do poorfags buy cars they can't afford to maintain properly?
>>27635222>only zoomers like early vipersThis is bait. That's a gen x and millennial favorite
>>27635222millenials are literally eternally mindbroken by zoomers
