I think the '05 is going to make a heckuva cool looking race car:

Oooh, that looks good. I had also previously wondered what the car would look like with yellow-tinted driving lights too, and now that I see it I like it.

That Steeda looks like a chop -- albeit a very good one. Looks at the completed desaturated interior and lower grill. Plus, the stickers look a little off. Not to mention theres no driver inside. Either way, I think it looks great, though I hope the brick-like aerodynamics don't hurt it too much.

I can't wait to see the car on the track! Anyone know when we will see it in competition first?

You think the interior looks desaturated?

Well I guess the Steeda Photochop team needs to practice more.

Look again...There's a driver. He has a black helmet.


Edit: Oops I though you were referring to dan's post. I didn't see the first one pop up til a minute after. Your right that one is most definitly a chop.

the car is parked in that position for the photo so that might be why thier is no driver.

I have to agree it must be a chop.

that yellow car is obviously a chop as well since there is no driver why is it everytime there is a car posted people instantly say it is a chop. If that red car is a chop that is amazing because all of the stickers follow the body curves perfectly.

Yep, Steeda did (does?) have that Red one posted on their site so if it is a 'shop, then it's the best one I've seen.

Actually, they don't to my eyes. The "20", Royal Purple, rear quarter win and passenger side lower bumper stickers are the most obvious. Of course, I could be wrong.

Either way, it doesn't matter if it is a chop or not, it is still a cool car. I was just saying the "final" race car will probably look a little different, that's all.

Anything is possible with Photoshop. Just as an example, here is a C6-R I did.

Not that I want to keep rehasing this, but the car looks to be leaning slightly on its outside tires (as it would do in a turn), that is why the no driver thing is relavant.

Of course, I could be wrong, and it could be an optical illusion with the shadows.

I just want to see the thing on a race track beating other cars! Anyone know when it will be in its first race?

I am sorry for bringing back this thread but I think this proves it is a chop
