C8 coupe and spyder
To my knowledge, no one has brought up the fact that there are two variants of the C8 testing, the coupe and the spyder. Refer to the engine bay and different covering used in the rear on these two cars. The coupe has vents of some sort running along the sides, whilst the spyder just has one black tarp. Also, they have different wheels, to distinguish.
Coupe is in the front, spyder tailing
The spiders rear window clearly seen testing a few months back, resembles that of a Ferrari 458/488

I think I saw it mentioned in a couple places. But nobody had anything to say about it. Just that there were a couple differences that showed there were two models. So, basically, the vert has some sort of folding solid roof and flying buttresses.
Any insights on the mechanics of the convertable roof?

Everything you brought up has already been discussed in some depth days ago.
We just need a photo of the car with the top down.

Can't wait to see the C8R on track next year.

So which one were you sitting in a couple weeks back? I assume a coupe — otherwise you’d have noticed the top up/down button perhaps?

I posted some pics in another thread but the fuel door location is in different places between the coupe and the spyder. Same general area but higher up on the coupe. I don't know if that gives any insight as to how the hatch is going to open and/or how the top will be stored but I thought I'd mention it again.
