I've seen so many previews I don't know which to believe ! Can't say I'm too ken on it if that is the new shape. Although I like the short overhangs I wouldn't want a longer wheelbase. In fact I think that of the C5 is a bit too long for a sports car, it should be shorter to improve manoeuverability and steering response as its a bit too stable at the moment.

Yes i thought that when i read it had a longer wheel base that it would compromise handling but it do's have a "taughter" body ,so maybe that has helped stiffen up the chassis.

Reminds me of a cross between a Datsun 260z and a Jag.

Here is a link to a site that has collected all of the artist's impressions of the new C6: link. This design you mention is about half way down the list.

I dont like it much either. It may look better in the flesh though. The front looks like the front of that Fiat coupe they sold a couple of !

As your profile states you're a bricklayer, I'd just love to see you turn up on site in ANYTHING pink

It would go nicely with the fluffy white poodle.
