The only thing the C8 looks like is a NSX.

full disclosure... it's been over 30 years for me, do people go out clubbing any more? Not that you are a kid, just an ADHD comment.

Well I am old and happily married, I don’t go clubbing anymore. I didn’t drink so I never took the ugly girl home. I would always choose the easy going , non makeup wearing good looking woman over the tarted up, gold digging supermodel every time.

you guys keep talking as if the C8 is ugly compared to the LaFarrari. It is not, it is less extreme, with a bit less performance.

Actually it looks great...its that rearend its downright horrible. That and could use more rubber in the back
The F cars lines flow from any angle...if theres any rearend that mimics it its the FordGTimo...with a 6 banger.

We shold enjoy em all when they go electric its over.

I'm buying a no option C8.
Frankly, that's the only way the base model makes any sense to me.

Also a bit like a C8 is my mid-engine 12 year old Lotus. New car cost for these is much less than a C8 (in the UK).

It's so hilarious. These are the folks wearing Corvette hats, shirts and jackets with racing gloves on.
Folks this car is $60k it's a vette and is in no way shape or form anything more. Its unfortunately ugly as hell too.
It is what they made so folks of course have to like it cuz it ain't gonna change.
Nooooo one will mistaken this for a Ferrari or a McLaren. Lol

Corvette folks wearing racing gloves? Of course! Why? I live within driving distance of Sebring, and plenty of Corvette owners not only race their cars,some of them experience the pleasure of winning against Porsches and other "exotics". The C7 ZR1 is a brilliant car, and limited sales numbers, together with world class performance, make it an exotic. Imagine what the upcoming C8 twin turbos will be.
