New spy photos... minimal camo, very sleek
https://www.caranddriver.com/news/g2...pe-spy-photos/
Base model looking svelt!... loving the front end return to dual side openings like the C4/5 and no more fish mouth like the C6/7.
1. Seems there will be a vent at the front of the hood just aft of the fascia?
2. I think the quarter glass may have an air inlet like the Viper?
3. Rear end looks much lower than the C7 in this shot... the lack of the silly Z51 spoiler is much nicer looking.

Ugly as sin. Looks like a McLaren had an illegitimate rape child with a Camaro. Trying WAY TOO HARD to look like anything other than a Corvette. I'm actually dying to see it unwrapped to see what car they copied this time. It was the F12 Berlinetta with the C7. C8 looks like a carbon copy (with very small tweaks) of the MP412C McLaren in the front with the sides and back of the Acura NSX.

Look how rounded the rear / read deck-lid is! Very cool!! IMO the C8 is going to be a HUGE game changer in the sports car world!! What an exciting time for Corvette!!!

It's really starting to look like that $169,000 car... lol
But seriously, it's going to be a STUNNING vehicle.
