I think I would tone down the rear diffuser a bit to give it more balance.

If the Z looks like this, I’d be interested.

I believe in the Beer Fairy
It will never look even close to that, you left on the diffuser and the front fenders. It will never have a rear wing like that either....

My render wasn't meant to be speculative of a product thats coming down the pipeline, it was more just a personal inspiration of what I would like a road-going C8 inspired by the C8.R to be

The 458 Slayer. Can't believe this may be an attainable reality - Diffuser and front fenders included (aftermarket). Just need airbags and factory widebody.

How is saying this will "slay" a car that came out over a decade ago and has been replaced by 2 generations since then some kind of achievement?

Thanks, it's lovely, but it doesn't have nearly enough ground clearance to be a usable street car.
See what you can do with it raised about four inches, while still keeping it looking as good.

4 inches?!?! My C5 has just over 3 inches of ground clearance... I'd rather err on the low side
