You just might notice that in this first picture, the car has the factory window sticker on it..........

Dealerships were sneaky like that in order to sell cars. Still are to this day.

I will NEVER believe that was a factory or C&C produced car.

Dealer add on yes, but no way production based.

Just too tacky!

This body kit is made by RAZZI, I've known bout it for a long time, if you go to andysautosport.com you'll find it. Just another thing that convinces me it's not a real factory produced car, why would GM offer a body kit that is avalible to anyone? I'm with sir Cranky on this one. Also in the pic of the razzi kit the shark decal is visible on the left front fender. It's the same pic that scd88ga put up here, the 2nd one.

Just another one of those dealer things I would imagine. They did it to the third gen Cavaliers (putting Razzi kits on a few of the cars that came into inventory).

Don't get stuck on the illusion that C&C only made imaculate awesome looking stuff. They made a lot of crap too.

I asked my dad about the Beretta "Shark". He remembers the model. Lisencensed C&C shops did a lot of stuff for dealerships, if they were smaller shops without body shops, etc. Most C&C installers also did other stuff as a main business.

But, on the assumption the Shark didnt originate with C&C, the sunroof explains away the sticker.

BTW, my GTZ has a power moonroof :D

WAY too stupid and crude!

Say what you like but they were very professional in their approach and without a whole whack of documentation I'm calling BS on this thing!

GM would NEVER let that POS out the door!
He never said it WAS a GM design so chill the F*** out! It is in fact a C&C car as I have proof from a former C&C employee of the fact... Saying that it's stupid or crude is just an opinion and is meaningless to this thread.

END OF DISCUSSION!

Whats the proof? My grandpa owned a C&C, my dad worked there. Kinda how he met my mother. Anyway, he said he remembed the Shark thing, but not any installs at his particular shop. Id like to see some build sheets. Its interesting if nothing else.
