    Default Who Wants a New K5 Blazer?

    This might fall under "take my money" but maybe not. It is a cool concept and that color takes me back to my childhood. Thoughts? MG

    The term fugly, comes to mind. I think car manufacturers started hiring the flunky engineers from NASA to design their vehicles. If they want to bring back the K5, pull up the specs from the late 80s and build it.

    Thats a "custom" abomination. Even GM cant screw up classic lines that bad.

    That is the best post-50s front end GM ever built though.

    Edit: Second best. 67 was the same but without the front marker lenses.

    In fairness to GM, everything they make looks like shit except the Vette. Wait until they put that awful truck front end on the Tahoe/Yukon and Suburban.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    At the least it doesn’t have square wells. Hell, it looks better than anything Chevy’s put out in 20 years. Square wells... really.

    Atrocious. It looks like a old blazer bottom with a new Tahoe top.

    Pick one GM... ya can't do both.

    I like it OK but the wheels are really bad.

    The top doesn't look like it comes off.. that was really one of the only cool features of those old things.

    Beyond the front end it’s nothing more than a Tahoe. It will flop
