Not only do I dislike - I hate this king side wishbone beaming from it's profile. Make it go away!
Second, we did not need another sharp line on the fender. That's over kill.
These two bold changes take away from the looks I was loving. Please reverse these before production rolls out.
Think Edsel !! Maybe I'm over reacting but this is disappointing!

I loved the C8 when it came out. The more I see them, the uglier they are. I can't get past the point in the front. Frunk line is too low. Headlights are too exaggerated. Wheels are awful and have zero concavity or dish. And I can't help but think it's a knockoff supercar- and I don't mean that in a good way. It looks like it could be a meme, "When you buy your Lambo on Wish.com"
The Z06 helps a bit with the pointed front end and wheels. But the rest is... eh. I'll probably still get one, but only because I can afford it without selling the viper. If I was still planning on trading, like when I got the viper, no chance.
Odds are, I flip it and get a GT3 or GT4RS.

Probably but looks are subjective so there's that.
I like this 10X better than the C8. If the C8 had looked like this from the start I probably would have purchased one. Depending on price I may get a C8Z. Let a year go by for quality issues and the typical 1 year later GM updates.

He's averaged 1.18 posts per month for 16 years...probably not a real big Corvette guy...

If it's not an option, you could always have it painted. It won't stand out as much on a black or gray car. Personally, I'd like to see it in carbon fiber.

Just hoping not to have to spend the extra $$$ on what will wind up well over $100k already with HTC and desired factory options.

Many will end up accepting it just like the boomerang has been accepted. Very few will cancel their Z06 because of the wishbone. Relax, it all good . We are bitching when there are people who will never be able to have a C8. Look at it through a different lens.😃
