PureRossi has unveiled the first details on the Rossi SixtySix - a Corvette C6 that borrows its design DNA from the classic Sting Ray model. The SixtySix will be built in limited numbers and will be unveiled at the 22nd Annual EyesOn Design this Sunday at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills. As we were saying, the Rossi SixtySix will take its design inspiration from the Sting Ray models: there will be a split window, stinger hood, a modern front, and retro "bumpers". For the interior, updates will be made to the center console area, door accents, and shift boots. The sports car will be offered in eight exterior colors: black, red, maroon, blue, pearl white, a charcoal gray, and yellow. Under the hood the Rossi SixtySix will have a V8 engine producing 450 HP and 400 lbs-ft of torque Unfortunately, performance figures haven’t been released yet so little is known about how these numbers will reflect on the road. Transforming a new Corvette C6 into a Rossi SixtySix only takes five days and the price for the final project, with the C6 donor car included, is in the $130k area. Specifications after the jump.

8 comments: Rossi SixtySix based off the Corvette C6 by PureRossi It’s interesting. I’ll say that. The proportions are MUCH better than the 50s re body for the C5, that looked completely awful. This one has funky wheels... like... the negative offset just isn’t working with this design. I feel that if the wheels were more flush, with a flush face, it would look a lot better. Right now the design looks 2010, but the stance looks 1997.
 on a glance, the design is so unique but when you stare at it.. you’ll find yourself looking on the MB SLS also.
 Wonderful and looks great in bringing back a little bit of the old to the 21 century. Well, not too crazy about the headlights at all.
 Might not go that far. But it isn’t bad, either. I look at this thing and I can envision a hundred places where they might have f-ed it up completely.
 the actual corvette should honestly look more like this... good classic design lines. chevy take some cues, none of this futuristic transformer garbage!!
