Default C8 release
Today I looked all over for articles/pics/ vid of the unveiled C8 Corvette and wondered why I couldn't find anything. Then I realized it's only June. Hmmm.

Thanks for the update! This was a helpful reminder to check to make sure certain appendages were still attached. Might wanna give that shot and report back. Fingers crossed.
