Consensus is visible motor in the coupe, covered motor in the vert with vents only.

Well, we now have a look at how the power folding mirrors will be when they're folded.

And check out how "angular" the frunk lid is! Not that it comes to a point or anything, but it's much more so than past generations.

Pretty cool to see these subtle differences!

Very cool and you can see this car a red "12 o'clock" stripe on the steering wheel. I figured you would be able to spec this or perhaps it'll match with different stitching options.

Good catch... the only reason they'd add the stripe is to have the ability to have it contrasting. Notice the car has red seat belts too.

Im stoked if they release the vert at the same time! I think this may be the best Vert in Vette history.

Agree... just hoping the delta to the coupe isn’t more than $5K.

Somebody please help me here. While Ferrari and Lambo don't have manuals any longer, Porsche puts manuals in the Boxster and Cayenne. So why do I hear how GM can't do it? They have the best of everything, including engineers.

Nobody makes a manual transaxle that is rated for the Corvette torque output. The market share of manuals probably wasn't worth the production costs to develop one.

Something tells me that even after the reveal there will still be camo cars running around. The higher power variants. Until the next level Vette comes out anyways
