My thoughts prior to the reveal were the same as yours; keep what I have. Now? I'm all in. I will own a C8 as my fifth Corvette. Great job Chevrolet and Corvette Team!

Default Dang it. I'm hooked

I like many of you here thought I'd wait a few years and pick one up as the pricing got down to sane levels. After playing with the designer online came up with this one and I really don't think I can wait. Hopefully going to the dealer and getting the trade in value of my C7 will sober me up into waiting.

Yep, I'm keeping my C7. But, I will have a C8 at some point in the future.

After my complaining about the C8 rear end I must say with your configuration it looks okay.
