I’ve struggled with the rear end of the C8, it’s just too busy on every trim. This rear end looks fantastic. I’m not sure about the rest yet but the rear end is an improvement to me.

      I agree on everything but the rear end. But just about any rear end is probably better than the current one rear end.

        The rear end is better, but kinda too Camaro for me. That and the $140k + Z06 cost. Might as well get the Ferrari and have something worth selling when you’re ready to move on.

          Totally agreed on both. As a C7 owner I think “peak Corvette” style is the C6 ZR1 with updated head and tail lights.

        Rear end is better than the front end for sure, but when I picture a Corvette in my mind, if it isnt the C1 or C2, I think of the C5. I just don’t see the silhouette of any of those on this design.

        Like, if I squint my eyes I wouldn’t even recognize it as a Corvette, I would think its a Ferrari or some other exotic import, but that’s not exactly a compliment IMO. Corvette has a rich history of attractively designed vehicles, and they ditch all that to make a bootleg Ferrari design? I mean, ditching what works is kinda GMs modus operandi, but still.
