Could this be coming to the C8?

It's not an "innovation" question. If they did it, there goes the entire trunk. And BTW, when's the last time you saw a current Porsche Targa? I think I've seen ONE in the last 2 years and 911's are more common around here than Corvettes by a LONG shot....Now 911 Cabs? One on every street corner!

+1. Cost is always the buzz killer! The Corvette is based on Bang for the Buck with a dose of performance. Hence, no active aero, rear axle steer, powered targa tops or front axle lift. All of these items add to cost.

And the C8 is going to be a hardtop convertible....but the coupe will have a removable (but not powered) targa top.

Then one could also say, a corvette has X amount of HP/torque, why not a miata. This isn't rocket science. For a car to be budget friendly something, has to give. Thats part of the reason exotic cars are so dam expensive, they compromise on almost nothing except for maybe storage space.
