GEN 2 What else is in your garage?

[jamanrr]

Hate to say it but the new Corvette is the most innovative sports car out today, mid engined, targa top with zero sixty under 3 ticks all for 60xxx thousand this is a steal

Sold earlier this year, more room in the garage now but not enough to park the Raptor...

Looks like the motor is in backwards... Distributor should be up front, right?

ive always been a corvette fanboy & was a GM die hard- the C8 is unreal....but that’s kinda the problem. It “cheapens” the ownership experience/draw/aura whatever you wanna call it for a lot of the highest end European etc mid engine/exotics. Make no bones bout it- the C6 GS/Z06/ZR1 already competed w/ or matched or beat a lot of exotics/hyper cars - let alone the C7 high performance variants- the C8 BASE car nips at the heels of a Porsche turbo, base mclaren etc

so- when the Z06, ZR1 & then possibly their true HyperCar “zora” edition come to fruition, other than name recognition, collector status, & extremely underwhelming reliability coupled w/ extreme high/obnoxious maintenance/repair costs- what exactly will be the real draw/accolades to be doled out for the likes of the lambo? Mclaren? Ferrari? Porsche? Etc....an M or AMG car? Bahahahjahahahahahhahahaha

GMs “mic drop” on the automotive world is significant- but they could have dialed it back a smidge and/or raised the price tag a bit to help the other overpriced BS out there too

Car and driver even admitted that it should be priced larger, but GM sets that and for what you get yes it is light years ahead of some exotics. I would rock one and I have been a life long import person.

The $60k starting price for a C8 is as common as a $57k Raptor starting price (good luck actually finding bare bones models on the street)

I think the C8 average price is going to be north of $70k.

A local dealer will order one for me at invoice and they just sold one for 67k new. However, most all I have seen are in the 80-120k range with mark up galore.

The C8s are bringing over MSRP all over the place. I have been dabbling the thought of picking one up, although not at an ADMIN of 20K+. They are definitely the rage right now.
