No, go get a Camaro if you're not going to spend the extra money on a Corvette.

I would definitely like manual seats , no a/c, manual steering column, manual locks, base sound system, cloth seats, manual windows, fixed roof. A true light weight, strong and tight.

GM knows many will trade them in every 3 yrs so they are always w/a warranty they got that market locked down good.

Think many would like to keep them long term after the warranty and would feel more comfortable with less things to go wrong. These days its not really replacing a part its a system.

There is an audience guaranteed just make it simple and make sense
Wouldnt cheapen the image at all, they made L88s ZR1s, many with less options now look at em.

Some like a very simple control layout, levers buttons you actually push etc I like the concept. Anyone who wants a Vette is not going to say hey look I could get Camaro for 1500 less they will still buy the Vette.

I hear they are making one like that. Also saves weight because it's started deleat. Comes with a crank.
