Ran across this interesting thread that has actual pics of something: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c8-general-discussion/4052435-so-while-i-was-at-mpg.html Interesting stuff. At least we know something is coming soon.
Here is another: http://www.corvetteblogger.com/2017/10/11/spied-camouflaged-mid-engine-c8-corvette-spotted-public-first-time/
I think it will be a Corvette. For GM to disregard 4+ DECADES of "the NEW Mid-engine Corvette" hype would be one of the biggest marketing screw ups of ALL time.
It's a Corvette. A buddy has seen it, touched it and watch it on a track. Said it looks good but not great (still kinda fan boy), motor is a V8, sound fantastic and believes it's a double overhead.
Interesting in that there were actually two C8 Corvettes there. The second car in the background of the picture has different wheels to...
No I think that is a yellow C7 convertible; part of the group. Typically, engineering brings current and future Chevrolet models on a trip. Also behind the C8 #2 in the drive thru is a black Chevrolet support truck. Those test guys never go out alone. That whole trip would have been planned out. Jim Ingle developed the 'ride trips' idea for General Motors years ago and they still follow it today. > JIM INGLE – GM/CHEVROLET – 2010 CORVETTE HALL OF FAME GM ~ Chevrolet Category 2010 Induction Image Unavailable, Please Login Corvette Hall of Fame Inductee James Ingle had been the source of Corvette development engineering from the mid 70s until the launch of the C5 when he moved on to Quality Rides Group Manager conducting ride trips for all General Motors North America products. Ingle’s efforts were the result of a very disciplined engineering approach to problem solving and an ability to understand the Corvette customers and translate those into a development solution. Ingle became the quintessential Corvette test driver, logging numerous hours behind the wheel, testing new and future Corvette designs on the GM Proving Grounds. He was responsible for the published performance numbers for Corvettes from the 70s to the 1997 model including the famous ZR-1. Long drives were his enjoyment and he became so proficient at checking out every feature of a new product that GM decided to have him develop a consistent and uniform quality drive audit process for new vehicle launches. “Jim was an excellent development driver, able to wring out a car by the seat of his pants,” said Dave McLellan. “Jim made major contributions to the C4 Corvette out through the ZR-1 in both test and development. The ZR-1 Power Key was his idea.” Ingle retired in 2006 after 43 years of work at GM.
