Too bad the person who was taking the video couldn't turn down the radio so we didn't have to hear "see red again" over and over again. That is worst Chevelle song.

Anyone else notice the hood on a couple of them, especially the last C8 in the line before the C7, or just different camo to throw us off.

The youtube summary says "The original video was uploaded to Facebook by Brian Bowles." - searched FB and can't find it.

They're throwing all kinds of funky padding on the inlet lately. The other recent videos show new very bulky padding on them and odd shapes we haven't seen.

However, this picture was a "blip" in the first teaser video. It appears to be the most un-padded version of the car to date. Notice the side scoop opening extends farther back and the lower door body line sweeps up into it in a more "normal" manner. My bet is that this is the car merely covered in camo wrap.

The last one looks like the hood has some sort of indentions in the front for venting out air. Similar to the Ferrari 488. But could just be lighting or Camo playing tricks.

isn't Corvette Nut the same as this video source on the forum? - not posted yet, or dupe?

We need a master video thread for all sightings

I love that it sounds like a "young(er)" car enthusiast... "look how bad a** that is, like a Mclaren..."

If GM is trying to attract a younger demographic to Corvette, they may be on their way!
