The front storage is really quite big and deep

Side scoop less objectionable on darker car. Carbon flash still has too much metal flake for my taste.

This is a pretty big car. Small is not a word I would use. But better looking in person.

I am attending the Corvette Homecoming in Bowling Green the end of this month. I simply can't wait to lay eyes (and hopefully hands) on one!

 

Young crowd............or 'mature'?

 

I like side scoop trim in body color. were there any like that there?

 

Mature. But who else can take off in the middle of the day?

 

Just one car. This same car is making the rounds. They have an orange and white one going around the East Coast. But this blue is really good looking.

They had a grey one and a red one at the Concours in suburban Detroit this last weekend.

 

It is really looking good!

 

It also ties into the black edge of the air intake.

 

I stand corrected on the color. That red looks vibrant. Mayor will you be doing another cross country trip for your convertible?

 

Yes but a different route. It depends on my schedule.

Quite a good article here with lots of C7 / C8 comparisons, including sliders

https://www.topspeed.com/cars/chevrolet/2020-chevrolet-c8-corvette-stingray-ar186200.html

The C8 is 6 inches longer, 2 inches wider, about the same height but 150 lbs heavier than the C7. As I said yesterday when I saw it, it does not come across as "a small car" at all. In fact it looks rather large to me.

 

^^^^
The C8 is 68 pounds heavier than the C7, not 150.
It's in your link, 3,366 verses 3,298

 

Oops. Correct!

 

6 inches longer than C7 ?! That's not a small nor subtle difference.

Haven't seen it in person yet, but i would agree ... not a "small car".

 

They know their demographic!

 

I thought this was going to move their demo from a guy looking for a coffin to a guy who wants a car that may put him in a coffin.

 

Just wanted to say "told you so" and gloat a little.

I said there would be ONE car - a mid engine only, and I said it would be less than $65-70K. All the signs pointed to this, and Chevy will hopefully leverage this car to gain share in Europe. I think they have a chance. My guess is they CAN (not will) sell 5,000 cars, which would be massive for them.

 

Right On !!!
