Good god I hope it is the end to retro styled cars.

I never got it. Are these name sakes and the designers behind them not capable to standing on their own? Why cant they be new designs?
Should innovation be stifled cause we pine for what always been done/what we're used to/comfortable with?

Go buy the fucking old one.

I guess that's why I've liked german cars, the designers dont have that hang up.

The gen 6 stang is the first mustang I'd ever buy and all the mustang guys clown on it and talk about their crappy looking and crappy  performing older ones are so much better.

Camaro guys are like that too. They'll spend the entire night telling you why the pre gen 6 Camaros are much better.

Car dudes are strange

Retro design was a direct response to Barrett Jackson driving the price up on every 60s & 70s muscle car creating a demand that nobody could fill or afford until the car makers decided to fill the demand with retro models.

Barrett Jackson caused more pain for middle class car enthusiasts... Everyone who had a rusted out Camaro in the back 40 thought they were sitting on a gold mine because they saw an all original low mileage 1968 Z/28 sell on Barrett Jackson for $225k.

Coming of age during the mid to late 80's, I can tell you that everything available was absolute crap.  I guess there were outrageously expensive options, but almost everything remotely affordable was under 200 hp, and plastic crap.  We absolutely had to look to the old car market to find performance.

That's not true today.  The old muscle cars are cute and quaint, but can't compete with today's offerings.  This is eventually going to reflect in the pricing, especially as people who appreciate the design nostalgia age out and die.

The Toyota MR-2 was a bright spot in the 1980's car market and actually sold quite well.

Not on my bucket list, rather have a new pickup.

Quoted:
I'm really hoping that this new one drops the price of the previous generations.  Used Vettes are still outrageously expensive, even those that are well used.

Quoted:

145 hp

Not exactly inspirational.

For me it's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow.

I played with the builder a little last night, body color does look pretty good. If I had black I'd do CF intakes though

I think it is badass.  Sub 3 seconds 0-60 with 490hp?  Wait until the turbocharge it and give it 1,000hp.  This thing is a supercar killer.

Next year, at LeMans, they are going to destroy their class, including the Ford GT.

Great job, Chevy!

Yeah, you're triggering a reply. . .Wow 17'er, your begging for attention is really sad. And you demand a reply, but you & your cohort come out the gate with "Boomers are gonna die off soon" "you are a clown" and a tawdry Cialis comment.  I did read every post, but figured there was too much chickenshit to bother with trying to have an actual conversation with anyone. Where was I when you were storming about my silence? Actually, I left the insults here to log onto the Corvette Forum. I didn't just visit the C7 section, I fent to the C8 section also. Yeah, there were spirited disagreements, and I spent a bit of the evening reading the back-n-forth in the C7 & C8 sections without encountering one chickenshit insult. Go figure.

The ignorance is thinly disguised in the spoiler above.  The  premise being that current model owners are an impediment, the implication being that only young woke people know the true value of the C8.  Again with the narcissist youngster view.  The truth of the auto business is that reputations are made on repeat business. Jeep owners buy the next Jeep. Mustang drivers are true to Ford, and Corvette Forum sponsors like Mike Furman will confirm that their livelihood is based on repeat Corvette business. So, despite your baiting comments, a lot of us really do embrace the next new thing.

Despite your self-centered demand to be noticed, you don't really know anything. And most of the bravado written here comes out of a mouth  that can't even afford a used Corvette!  OTOH, I've consistently owned sports cars since I was 17. I was a registered poster on LS1.com while this forum was new, & crashed, and had to have everyone recreate their accounts.  I first logged into the Corvette Forum before many of you teeners connected to the Internet.  I had a friend that worked on the Vette assembly line when it was on Union Blvd in St. Louis, and another friend who worked on the Bowling Green assembly line. Yes in point of fact, in contrast to yourself, I damned well do know a thing or two.

Yes, I can stand to be told I'm wrong. But there's ways to disagree with person without being an ass.  Supra actually did write a piece a nice piece, but he he overstepped his privilege with me in the first sentence. So I walked away.   Before you dogpile my ass further for not playing your game here, consider for a moment if the arfcom Staff would appreciate the fact the your writing style drives clicks to another web site.

Apparently is weighs 3366 lbs. Not a lightweight car but not bad compared to the average supercar.

This really does put the Corvette in the exotic class.  It's a working man's exotic car.

I think this is the first exciting product to out of Detroit in a very long time.

Yep, i have a 750 rwhp s550.  Was looking hard at a gt500 but the base price of 76,000 plus ADM puts it over 90k without adding any options.
This is the first chevy i have wanted to own in years. Love the old GM muscle cars, but have not liked either the vette or camaro for years.  I have a deposit on a c8 and am excited to see one in person.
