That is pretty much what I’ve been expecting it to look like for a while now.

I'm still a believer that the scoop does not go into the door creating the little wing piece.

It looks just like the image shown on this button from the interior leaks... but does that mean that it’s also a split-window? I sure hope so.

I sure hope so, that scoop does not appeal to me in any way, shape or form.

Now wouldn't THAT be something. Maybe this is the first place I've read/seen that prediction. Maybe that's the big surprise at the Reveal. NO SCOOP! Oops.

I've been thinking for awhile that the C8 will have a split window. The first revolutionary change for Corvette was the C1 change to C2, which was as we all know the 63' Split Window Sting Ray. I think this surprise might be a one year only 2020 split window.

rofl they have absolutely no interest in "playing you", all they care about is selling cars. These conspiracy theories are tiring. Look at the leaked rear. Surfacing is exactly the same as what is seen on the camo cars. Tinfoil sales must be through the roof with this forum

My hope is that the scoop is not incorporated into the door to any great degree because the projection would be prone to dings by virtue of the sharp edge.

From those pics it looks like the scoop has two openings. The main one below the blade that extends to the door, and a smaller one above that towards the top of the fender. Maybe this is a big performance variant?
