I like it, but the radiator opening could be a little lower for my aesthetics.
The mid-engine configuration may finally solve the 0-60 gap that Corvettes have with Porsches that so many of you gripe about.

Looks like they moved the cab forward and stretch the rear of a C7. I'm going out on a limb here and say that the C8 will look very different from this rendition.

I agree. They been doing this for years. They take a picture of the current generation Corvette and then just adjust it. I laugh at all the C6 renderings we saw which was basically a C5 with exposed lights. Then with the C7 renderings which were basically a C6 with different hoods.

The mid-engined car (I prefer Zora) needs to be revolutionary in design including the exterior.

You have no idea how much I hope it will look like that.

That rendering does not appeal to me.
