That gives the C7 a 6 model year run... sounds about right.

I would be seriously surprised if the C8 comes out on schedule without any major issues

it is a entire new configuration and it’s very likely that something will be unaccounted for

eg: the entire car pops a wheelie due to a lack of front end weight etc

Guess they have not tested the car at all?

I agree with your timeline for its reveal and its customer deliveries, however Mike Furman at Criswell has been accepting deposits for the ME for years. He has had ours since Feb. 1, 2015 — and LOL we are still not # 1 on his list.
