Do you have inside info or? Forza 7 came out last year, so they’re on a Horizon release this year. I could see it. The Centenario was the cover car for the last Horizon game, the C8 is creeping into exotic territory.
No way. Ford, Lamborghini, and Porsche have the cover car rights for both Forza series now. There’s an in-game picture from November that shows a GT2 RS as the cover/start menu, but it was the cover for Forza Motorsport 7 and start menus aren’t made until the very end of game development. I’d bet good money on either the Lamborghini Huracan Performante or Ford Mustang GT500 being the cover car. It’s even possible that both are on the cover, as both the Raptor and the Centenario were on the Horizon 3 cover.
It's nice to see that we have some gamers in the house, but I'm more of a project cars 2 guy. I hope they reveal the C8 soon so people can decide on path to choose.
Actually...maybe? I’m reading the Larry Edsall book and came across these pages. I forgot that the C7 was teased in Gran Turismo (bottom-tier game IMO but whatever).

The addition of a camouflaged C8 prototype to the current Grand Turismo game is very possible. However, it wouldn’t be a huge E3 release. Perhaps it’s a little side note during the PlayStation press event.
Over 500,000 C7’s were raced on Forza racing the C7 before its reveal. With the huge percentage of younger folks playing that game, it would again make great sense to “pre-reveal” a camo’d ME on it.
In a high school student parking lot, before the C7 came out, there were a couple of Corvettes. Within two months of the C7 being for sale, there were 16 C7’s in the student parking lot (yeah, an affluent area), and within 6 six months of the C7’s being sold, there were 30+ C7’s in that same student parking lot.
C7’s driving down neighbor streets got and still get the thumbs up and similar from 10-16 years olds.
To make a Corvette “cool” with young people was accomplished with the C7. We need to have the ME be equally or more visually dazzling to attract young people’s interest. For our Corvettes to be around and thriving two decades from now, instead of being extinct at that time with is average, current, 60 year old purchase demographic, the ME has got to dazzle. It will. Thanks to FVS for this rendering which shows it will do that.

I'm going to laugh my *ss off if the C8 is revealed at Microsoft e3 like the GT2 RS
