Default How GM should tease this car now!



here’s a quick teaser pic I drew up to simulate what we should be seeing as far as a “teaser” image soon.

Teaser videos cost money and GM will not advertising the Corvette so they let social media rumors do it for them. How many years has it been since you saw a Corvette commercial ????

Agree, IMHO they won't release (well officially anyway), any teasers or dates. They'll just do it all at one time.

Not tease in the sense of cloaking the car, but I've thought this is one of the better release vids ever done. Would be cool to see GM do something of this quality level when they debut this bad boy. Crank up the speakers and enjoy:

So I'm guessing all these "Corvette Enthusiasts" dont remember the C7 teaser images or clips at all then...

Right. It's great those of us with poor memory, or never seen prior release teasers are less of a Corvette Enthusiast than you.

yeah pretty much, considering how many people on here talk trash about a simple post as this talk as if they know everything there is about corvette, yet come on here and don’t know hardly anything about the car or the history behind it.

I like the "leaks", but it'd be nice to see the first official teaser. The C7 tease and release was masterful.

Social media is a boon for businesses. Lots of reach for zero investment.
