I bet he's from our enemy, The Mustang's.... That gang has been jealous and aspiring to Corvette-levels forever! Zerv is a plant, a mole, a double-agent!!! Vette on Vette violence serves no-one...

What! If I’m correct we are just discussing cars here. This makes the whole thing sound like some kind of conspiracy. We all need to get a grip and relax.

Are you guys really arguing over a car that hasn't even been released yet? Jesus even a broken clock is correct two times a day...who cares if a sketch, or a guess, or a rendering is close, wrong or spot on...this is such BS...

Did you really need to revive this thread? Do you feel better now?

Here's the version for those who enjoy punctuation, correct spelling, etc.

Okay. We understand YOU'RE upset because you CAN'T fork over 6 figures for AN ME but why say the MAN'S wrong when HE'S about to be PROVEN 100% right in 2 days?
Wow. SOMEONE'S salty
YOU'RE not getting AN ME for under the price of a ZL1 1LE.

And, ZERV02 was proven 100% WRONG.
And maybe ViperFan1 is 12 years old....

Here’s what he got right:
1. Lamborghini style start/stop
2. Buttons running up the right side.

Heres what he got wrong:
1. Digital touchpad
2. Wraparound display
3. Steering wheel design (twice)
4. Steering wheel with “noticably thicker sides”
5. “xxxx” printed in the center of the steering wheel (obviously hinting at zora)
6. “the steering column, console, the dashboard, is a carbon copy to that of the current ford gt. Almost identical steering wheel”

and that’s only just what’s been disproven from his interior thread.

Then theres the time when he flip-flopped between it being called a corvette vs. Zora vs. Some “unrelated gm car”...

And the backpedaling on the $169k price thread...

And the time he claimed the high perf version will launch first...

And the time he implied that he drove it...

The list goes on.

Stop treating this guy like he has all the answers. It should be clear at this time that he either saw a quick glimpse of a photo, or got a quick glimpse of the real thing, in passing, just enough to see a few key details and mess up/make up the rest.



Like i said back in august:

“there are plenty of ways somebody could come across an exposed c8 this close to the assumed reveal, but anyone with any real information or feedback to give on any key data (performance, pricing, availability, branding, market positioning, etc.) would be either too busy, too important or too held down by nda to risk anything in the name of anonymous fame. It's very clear (crystal, in fact) that the only thing to gain by doing this is attention and a way to fill what must be very boring free time (which the op seems to have an abundance of).”

and

“even if you give him the benefit of the doubt and believe he's seen it, it's clear he doesn't know anything beyond what he's seen. And is just using this thread as a device to get attention. Stop giving it to him.

He's flip flopping back and forth on pricing, branding (if it's a corvette/c8, if it's a supplemental corvette branded sub-model, if it's not a vette at all), its name (c8 vs. "xxxx") and the performance specs/packaging.”

it’s baffling how little it takes to convince some of you.

hey everyone, look at me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
