Default Chevy is copying our car's design
I'm sure Chevy saw how cool our dual poop shoots where and had to copy them on this car. Can people not come up with their own designs anymore?

How does dual exhaust on an early eighties chevy qualify as a copy of our Crossfire tail pipes?

Because it didn't come that way. Obviously we did it first and they're just copying it. It's just like all the Porsche cars. They've been copying our cars before our cars were even thought of. Freakin Germans, and everyone though McLaren was stealing designs.

Tsk, Tsk, Tsk.

... what he said. And why would you give credit to Chevy when this is an obvious personal modification?
I would have preferred to see the photo without the botched Photoshop attemped. Nice legs on the one.

I know you are just a youngster but our centered exhaust tips are hardly new much less unique.

Have you seen any late sisties E-Type Jags?


And you did say "Chevy"

Tsk Tsk yourself.

They're supposed to be. Does anyone see the major similarities between a E-Type Jag coupe and a Crossfire?

At the risk of adding to the maddness - but hopefully to settle the question XF was not first by a long shot. Example - Mini 2002

Looking at this pic it's hard to tell which will collapse first, the jag or the barn?
