Barry Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 Corvette C8 was revealed yesterday. I’m surprised it wasn’t posted here yet. They have dropped the FR setup and went for a MR setup so maybe we’ll see a car that can handle and compete with the likes of Ferrari and Porsche instead of just going fast in a straight line. Personally I kinda like how it looks. It’s a bastard Ferrari Lamborghini lovechild but there’s still enough Chevy in it for you to tell it’s a Corvette. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
