C8 Corvette: One Week Later

In reply to David S. Wallens :

The corvette brand has gained more fans than it has lost. And the unhappy people will probably now get pushed to go buy a C7. so GM wins either way! 

In reply to spacecadet :

I think you're right about the Corvette picking up new fans. And I'm looking at the car at the top of this page. Looks good. 

If the reported entry price of under $60k holds true it is a serious bargain. 

From the photos, I don't like the barrier between the driver and passenger. Maybe it isn't as bad in person?

In reply to secretariata :

I'm wondering if it's like the ND MX-5. When the photos were leaked, everyone freaked out about the in-dash screen. In reality, though, it never bothered me. 

I am a fan.

I am a fan as well, turned out a bit better than it could have. Still can't afford one, maybe some day.

I really like it! The only that looks really "off" to me is that weird spine down the center console.

When did "Corvette" change from a model to a brand? Every time I hear or read "Corvette brand" the past few weeks I keep wondering.

Maybe I missed it, but I’ve seen the sub-$60k base price, and I’ve seen the Z-51 performance numbers, but has GM mentioned what the Z-51 should sticker for?

Since the base model is all that and more, and the Z51 package is likely awesome, how about letting the Z06 really be all about the track?

What if it added lots of cooling, an enhanced data recorder, more downforce, and factory air jacks :)

Just saying...
