Las Vegas Dealer's Conference: C8 Announcement, it is coming!
I just left the General Session presentation by GM/Chevy at the "Find New Roads" Dealer's Conference at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas. We got a glimpse of the C8 Corvette. It is coming. GM called it a super car. The 2 pictures we saw showed very little, but I'm thrilled to share I caught a glimpse of the production car. It definitely looked mid-engined. The front hood reminded me of a lotus. Front bumper cover reminded me of the 2019 ZR1. Time to go party at the reception. If I bump into Brian Sweeny, US VP of Chevy, or other GM Execs, I will ask some questions and report back!

100% Corvette and not Cadillac. |
Seeing that Bowling Green Assembly tours are shut down until June 2019, I think it's safe to say that the C8 is entering production at that time and the car will be revealed at the NAIAS.
Hey Nate, any chance that a new Camaro was shown off at the conference? Asking for a friend ;) |

You didn't take a photo with your phone!?! I would definitely have snuck a pic :D Really appreciate the update!
|
Nate, anything you can share on power plant, trans?
|
Thank you very much Nate for sharing that, and amen, that the Cadillac ME rumors at put to sleep for 2020!
|
AWESOME News Nate!! Thanks for making my day!!
Did they happen to mention anything (or can you find out) about any upcoming marketing campaign elements (video teasers, track/test dates, release date, etc)? Thanks again!! What an exciting time for Corvette!!! |
I'm glad the next generation Corvette is not going to be a Cadillac! :thumbs: So you're confirming 100% that GM said that the next Generation Corvette is a mid engine platform and that the mid engine car is the next Corvette?
|
YES! If only our Moderators had the ability to exorcise every post in this C8 section that uses ME Cadillac — for at least one more year.
Kind of like a master “ignore” button. |
Awesome sir! Thank you! I wonder if the two photos you saw were the same two photos C7Pimp saw? Hmmm |
