As mentioned in another thread by ERIKTHEVETKING, here are his photos of the Targa C6 ZO6.

Oh dear oh dear, bl**dy ugly innit. What on earth possesed them to design it like that with those 3 prongs sticking out. Why on earth when the C5 targa is fine. Guess I'll have to wait for the vert, certainly not a targa for me.

Please tell me the C6 coupe targa is not like this?

Ah just seen the C6 recall post. Do I take it then that this Z06 targa is a non GM modificaiton, which perhaps explains the crapness.

I got these pics from an American forum. Yes it's been done as an aftermarket conversion at a body shop not by GM. I agree, the metalwork sticking out looks awful. I'm sure a better job could be done. Personally I would rather get a T-Top conversion done so the cross member retains rigidity around the cockpit.

I was assuming it was still work-in-progress. Isn't it?

So that's a Spyker....
I can imagine smashing your head into those lugs. What's wrong with the stock C6 targa set-up being used then?

I thought I read last year that GM were planning/thinking of a C6 Z06 vert. Was I dreaming or is this happening??
