At least GM put on a half decent wheel and went back to center exhaust, looks pretty good.

I'd much rather see the aero parts integrated in to the body instead of looking like some one got a JC Whitney gift card and went nuts.

It looks cheap and like a Transformer.

The backend looks like a triple cheeseburger. Layers all stacked.

Mine will be a black 2LT Z07, GT2 seats, with carbon fiber wheels...unpainted. Will be the 7th vette and 7th black vette. Initially considered the black painted wheels, but screw that, the carbon fiber looks wicked.

My wife is starting to like the C8, if for no other reason than it has an automatic transmission, so she could drive it. We have discussed it, and basically, if I sell my '70, she is OK with me getting a new one.

Tough choice. I still really like my '70.

My wife likes the C8, and might let me get the Z06, but she's complaining that it doesn't have a stick.

You can pick it up at my house. Send the $15K as a down payment, and bring the other $35K in cash when you come to get it.

One of the reasons I have the '70 is because I enjoy driving the manual.

I taught my wife to drive a manual on my small block '69 vert I had years ago, and she did fine with it. Then, she ran over a median at about 50 mph when we were on vacation, and broke the U-joints on one of the half-shafts. She would never drive that car again after that, and has never driven my '70.

I really liked this explanation on how the engine makes so much power!
