OH NO LEAF SPRINGS WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO

I like the front, but the rear end looks a little fishy. I like the c5 z06 styling better.

It's an ls2..6.0 liter


And c5 z05's run 11.8 off the showroom floor , so these ought to run close to that with the z51 suspension package and the same amount of HP as c5 z06s..
