Enough is enough. Just go to Area 51 in Nevada, all the answers are there.

This is my new favorite render, but it looks more like a Z06 than a base model.

The white car above is an Aria FXE https://aria-fxe.com/ . If the C8 ends up looking somewhat similar to the Aria I wouldn't mind.

The gray C8 render is also one of my favorites, though I know the C8 won't look anything like it.

If that were the ZR-1 Zora and the C8 was the clear forerunner of such a lineage, then I would say the C8 will change the automotive world. But, does GM have the nerve to go that far in the first ME Gen?

We will know shortly.




But this is probably how the C8 or its Z06 or ZR1 successors should look, especially the leading section of the intake shroud behind the door.

Posts like this are the only ones I won’t miss, even the top model won’t come close to this render, it’s a corvette people, you aren’t getting anything close Ferrari , Lamborghini etc...

Listen..... the base C8 is gonna look like this.

that's the freaking car..... that's it... it's the BASE c8....

I love that C8r pic.. and if the Z06 is like that? There's gonna be some not so happy spouses as I buy my first 120k+ car lol.

Scoop on door is 100% pronounced and 100% R...E...A...L..
to tell you how I know would be an issue... so many people have seen this car without camo now it's getting near NSX level of build up and its gonna be over quick.. I do agree with the op. I miss the old days but the old days are gone..

There's more leaks on this forum than a group of old men at a Urologists office.

Rubbish.

Styling is the cheapest, most-easily manipulated aspect of a car. A car's appearance is just metal or plastic. They could make this car look any way they want. Move the scoop here, a more rounded curve there, different headlights...it wouldn't take much.

There are some supercars that are gorgeous and some are hideous. Money wasn't the difference.

‘They can make the car look anyway they want.... correct , but it’s ALL ABOUT MONEY, they also make cars with tons of cabon fiber which is not cheap...... Rubbish is thinking you will get a 200 thousand dollar car for 60k, there is a reason why Ferrari and Lamborghini are priced where they are , you obviously have never driven either.

To the OP:

There's a section called "C8 General Discussion". Don't click on it for 5 more days. Done. Fixed. Easy.

You could learn so much from the C8 section of this forum.
