| A good friend who has 2 C3 Corvettes, a C5, and a C7 (that he bought last year) has decided that he isn’t all that thrilled with the C7 and has ordered a C8. He expects delivery in about a year.

Carl, good points on market “perception”.
I really like the C7 GS and while the powertrain has been great for decades, the chassis was the real star.
Actually, the C6 chassis was really good too so scratch that.
They should have made the interior worse in the C7 and used the horrible sticky buttons to keep it in line with the other premium manufacturers.
Sometimes humans and animals like comfort and predictability. On Oct 27, 2021, at 14:19, cmlf1 [at] optonline.net wrote:
While I have never been a big Corvette fan (besides the 63-67 Stingray) The C8 is a giant leap forward that will have them taken a bit more seriously in the global market. The C7 had a fantastic powertrain and chassis, but the interior was always an issue with most outside the 'Vette enthusiast groups and no matter how well it worked, the transverse leaf spring suspension was sneered at as well. The performance numbers alone will sell this car, and it does seem better put together significantly better that the previous generation. The lack of a true manual may hurt a bit, as Porsche still offers it in most variants, even though the acceleration numbers are better for the PDK.

They delayed the Z06 release because the standard C8 was selling so well.
This model will sellout immediately.
It looks pretty awesome in the videos.

For me…. YMMV, It just has the looks of one of those cheap sports car toys you used to be able to buy at grocery stores next to the wire bins with rubber balls. They weren’t any particular car, just the features of many… they looked cheap and plastic, cuz they were… too many body lines and none especially resembling a real car. But every 6yo wanted one.
