do you think people will be drilling holes in fenders or other strategic areas to effect drag or alter the appearance now the the corvette is bringing a wider audience than just geezers with too much cash.

there are a whole other segment of car buyers now being attracted to corvette. some of those buyers like to do different mods than just Lloyd mats, mild to wild, and chrome valve caps on their tires. I was speaking to those buyers.

Well, at 19 I suppose I'm one of those buyers. And the answer is no. I plan on owning my C8 for a very long time and won't be hacking into it to install tasteless mods.

I really like the c8. I'm not in the market, but if I were, I would get one and put a matte wrap on it and paint the wheels black. Would look awesome!
