I like it...I prefer it to the other renders actually, but unfortunately I don't think it will look that aggressive.

Great looking render, but it's not a Corvette. Looks like what a Lambo Huracan would have looked like if the Lambo designers weren't mesmerized by hexagons.

I like it a lot, but it's not going to look like that, unfortunately. Just like the Concept Car for the C7 was the one from Transformers....loved that car too. I saw that one in person....WOW!

Looks amazing, if the C8 would look like this, and cost under 100k, I would order one straight away.

Lol
I think that the hexagon thing works because they’re so committed to putting hexagons everywhere. They’re even on top of the bolts!

Yeah dream I world scenario. The C8 will not be that sleek. It's very bulky. Has the shape of a 430. But not as sleek.

At least every render and the camo light mules show that much.

I hope I'm wrong but I feel like C8 is gonna be like C1.... when C2 came out it was like omg that is amazing compared to last gen. Still looks that way when equally outfitted (colors wheel styles etc).

C9 is gonna be where it's at for the ME car. Feel sorry for the people being experimented on with this first run of ME's. It's gonna be an interesting couple of years.

Unless you design some crazy panels like some lambos... but even the picture above looks nicer ( I didn’t see the car, yes, but won’t look that nice I can guarantee you that much). Look at the panels, they’re simple but elegant.

That is why they will be able to keep the price under 160K.

A.) WTF with the A-piller; that's not how they work. . .
B.) No rear view mirrors.
C.) Side visibility looks like complete garbage.

Etc. .

It looks cool, but there's a lot more considerations into building a car than a single isometric view from 10' away.

No thanks.. it's a poorly photoshopped C7. I'll take the real deal.
