American Muscle is much of a rarity in Malaysia. So much so, getting to see a Mustang or a Camaro would be an event by itself but now thanks to a certain automotive distributor, one can now get a brand new Camaro similar to a particular insect-named robot. But even if a few (extra)ordinary Joes could afford a yellow Camaro, I'd be more impressed with a collection of Corvettes this owner has in his garage.
Zahid is currently residing in New Zealand for his studies. No, unfortunately Zahid is not the owner of these Corvettes you will be ogling down below but he is the creative mind of an young automotive blog called awesomepowered.com.
His latest showcase is a photo-feature of the C3, C4 and C5 Chevrolet Corvettes, and to make things awesome all of the cars come in the similar shade of red. Three red American muscle cars, extremely an awesome event of a lifetime.
Of course American muscle cars has its drawbacks. Some say they're only good in the straight line, as the connoisseurs of these cars rarely take to the mountain roads (well back then anyway as nowadays with JDM culture intertwined together, has put variety into the scene in the USA). Others cringe on V8 engines with humongous capacities which are practically the essence of it all.
Nevertheless the Corvette has evolved and matured into a fine specimen that is the C6 which even Tiff Needell says could teach supercars of other established makes a thing or two.
Please enjoy some of Zahid's works. Have a look at the video of the C5 as well. Frankly, I'd love to have a go in all three!
The C3 Corvette Stingray. Awesome lines giving the car the legendary muscle-look.
The C4 ight look sedated compared to its predecessor but a solid muscle car nonetheless. A similar car was featured in Wheelers Dealers once.
The C5, modern smooth lines may make the car's design timeless but of course this in only temporary as the newer C6 went back to its muscular chiseled shape.
