I've had two Cobras, over the last 15 years, both without side pipes, and still get a smile on my face every time I drive.

And I hate to say it, but... I never cared much for the shape of the Corvette after the 60's Stingrays (esp. 63 split window), but gee, the C7 looks pretty nice. And a C7 Z06 would be a neck-snapping experience.
