As much as I would love to see a C8 in 2020, the biggest issue with any theories supporting that is that Corvettes have always had extremely long runs for each generation:

C4 - 1984 - 1996 (13 years)
C5 - 1997 - 2004 (8 years)
C6 - 2005 - 2013 (9 years)
C7 - 2014 to 2020 (let's just say 7 years)

That would make the C8 at minimum a 2021 model year.

C5 was supposed to come out as a 1992 or 1993 model which would have kept the C4 a little shorter. C6 ran long due to GM's BK.

The introduction of the ME "Corvette" doesn't mean the FE version is going away.
