I like the wheels, the wheels, and um...... the wheels. Yup, that's about it.

Those rear tires are massive....gotta be 305-315 width. Hard to smoke those even with 557 hp. I know it can be done but can't be just hit the gas and burn. Can it?

EV ftw!!!
Is it just me or does anyone else think those wheels look positively small? Not referring to the width, but the height.
The car looks hot other than the retarded exhaust/muffler. The HP numbers sound amazing!!!

Why? The original Judge in 1969-1970 was orange....and with yellow /white /black flame stripes, too. Why shouldn't its successor be the same color? Not all of us want our cars to look like hearses.

Hmmm I wonder how the Corvette team feels about this. the C6 has 400HP standard. 575 seems like a stretch.. they'll probably have to bring it down a notch as to not step on the C6 Z06 model which still hasn't been finalized. Unless the Z06 were to get over 575 HP, which would probably push prices up pretty fay.

Most of you guys are probably too young to remember that Flip Wilson spoof where he plays a judge and introduces himself.

This car basically looks pretty good...especially in the orange Judge paint like the original. Now all they need to do is put on the yellow-flame side-stripes and the "Judge" decals like the original car, and we'll be all set. Hey...if you're going to do a retro....do it right.

Look back at some of the videos and you'll see for yourself.
.....And if you want to disagree with me on the Judge's graphics, fine....that's what these forums are for.
But I'm a firm believer in doing RETRO retros, not half-retro ones.
The new 2005 Mustang is probably the best retro I've seen yet....they got it about 95-98% right.

I'm sure it's a beast on the track though.

Since a lot of you guys are b - - - -ing about the exhaust, here's something else to keep in mind ....it is not a true dual system. Look under the car and you'll see where the two front pipes coming off the headers merge into a single pipe about halfway back and then re-split again to exit the rear in two separate tips.
