I think its about time they came out with a mid engine model. Vette enthusiasts have been waiting for this for a long time. So long that most are probably too old or have too many back / knee / hip problems to enjoy one the way it is meant to be driven. I wonder if this inspires Dodge to push out a mid engine Viper; Ford already has the GT, but both have been historically priced higher than a Vette.

Cars change. It is what they do. There was no possible way to make the Vette mid engine and keep a C7 look.

I'm sure you will get over it.

The Big 3 have engineered 3 super car engines Coyote by Ford, and the C6, by GM, and the new Hell Cat by Dodge. All three are capable of 1000 HP. The C8 Corvette, l like its lighter than earlier models, and I am sure its loaded with carbon fiber to help the looks and lighten the car and still have strength and rigidity. Anyone know if this is the first mid engine car for GM ? I saw the Gas Monkey boys dropped a Coyote engine in a 72 Pantera, It was impressive on a road coarse, to say the least, Ol Richard Rawlings poured lots of money in that one, up grading the engine and trans Axel. I would like to see a race with the Gas Monkeys Pantera, and the new C8 Corvette. Oh They raced the Pantera against a Dodge V 10 Viper ! A beat in the straight sections of the road .

don't think GM has had mid-engine production car before this besides Pontiac Fiero.

Rawlings has sold that Pantera years ago and unlikely that new owner would loan it for testdrive against C8.

Built by Chevy from 60-69.


And for the record I love the C7. It's a beautiful car. The C8, while certainly pretty, reminds me of an Acura nsx.

The C7 looks like a tough American sports car. The C8 looks like pretty European one.
