My money says it will overheat when driven hard like the current one does 

Forget about stop and go traffic in the south in the summer

It’s a Chernobyl car!

They took the middle ground with the tranny.  It's not a true auto -
no torque converter.  It's a dual clutch 8 speed.

So: true manual - out.  True auto - out.  But shifts are said to be
instantaneous enough that acceleration feels constant, and the shifts
are "invisible on a 100 hertz data logger" - according to Alex
MacDonald, an engineer on the project.

All the cars are now dry sump.  All service is done with engine in place

I am not a Corvette fan but the performance value has been unbeatable over

the last 20 years and they stepped up their game with the C8. They may take

a bite of some  Porsche sales as this is less than Boxter or Cayman money

but so is the current C7.

They have eliminated the manual gearbox so the C7 manuals will be strong

value holders for the next few years.

Uh, yeah.  Kind of has a familiar look about it.....

Car and Driver:  $60k.  sub 3 second 0-60.  495hp in the base model.

At that price point, it should be a big seller.  The current C7 model

is very popular, I see them everywhere.  Much more common than the C6

or C5 ever were.

Does someone need to remind GM to keep their eyes on their own paper?
