Looks good. I would pass on the base model and wait for the Z06 or ZR1 to come out. Looks like I might have to sell my wife's C7.R Callaway Corvette. To my knowledge I'm the only one who has brought Callaway a C7.R to install their package on.

The Z06 or ZR1 will be a beast but not necessary for me.

I like this car, I'm just not a chevy guy. I think my dad is going to get a base model, so I prob get some experience with it.

Meh... I think I am over-saturated these days. So many fast cars it is hard to stand out - hence the fact sheet number arguing.

This Hellcat is giving me the right kind of visceral experience.

Biggest turn off is the boys at Chevy thought this car needed extra fake engine sounds coming from the speakers...whoever had that idea should be fired.

Well, Corvette guys are traditionally older. Sound regulations make it hard to have a very loud engine outside, so they pump the engine sound louder inside. Makes sense, right? How many times have older guys said, "Huh?"

I’m excited to see the new C8 in person. I think it’s going to be one hell of a car. Imagine when they throw more power at it. It should be a beast!

I've owned and built several - it is a bloody horsepower harem right now.

The OEMs need to find a new way to invigorate buyers.

It’s a strange world when 700+ horse power isn’t enough to excite customers.
