I was just trying to add up what C level we had in that picture and gave up. Probably around a C65 or something...

I like the C8 but with all modern cars they just put too much styling **** all over them. New cars look too busy to me. Looking at the C8 next to the C3 and the clean lines and lack of styling **** hanging off of every corner makes the C3 look so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'd take a C8 in a heartbeat but I'll never get rid of my C3 for one if that is a choice I'd have to make.

Sorry to offend. I'll be sure to remember not to contribute on fun threads in the future.

No worries, just an observation.

Left row, front to back I see, C7, C7, C6, C7, C4, C7, C6

Right row (as far as I can see), C3, C2, C3, C3, hard to tell after that.

How many colors does the C8 come it? Just white? Boring! Honda's look good in white, Focus in gray, Mercedes black. Corvette,,,, some color.
