2023 Corvette Info Including SR Pricing, SR 2023 Visualizer, 70th Anniversary SR/Z06 Press Release; The C8 Z06 Press Release, Order Guide & Its Visualizer Link
Since I haven't had a hit of some C8 news in quite some time, I'm suffering from C8 withdrawal. Here is a little throwback of all the times we were tortured. Also camouflage has really evolved it seems.
Thank you very much Keagan-Z06! You mean we actually lived through that slow motion process three times previosly and survived each time?
That portends we shall likewise live through our current, seeming never-ending one too?
Well done trip down memory lane. Thanks.

Well put thread, is it bad that I spent $60 to drive the camo C7 in Gran Turismo 5 before you guys drove the real thing? I really hope we get a roll out like the C7 did. Leather being stitched would be a painful first video though. Lol
I am pleased you will be at SEMA as always. And we get to see your consequent pictures!!! And while I doubt the LT1+ would be revealed there, if it is, I know you will not just take great pictures but learn and share all that is available.
Glad you will be there. Sorry I am not with you this year.

I think if we look at Rick Conti's 2020 C8 Reveal Info vlog at around 6:33 in, he makes mention that nobody has been allowed to see the engine. He also mentions just before that tid bit that there is one portion of the car that will knock our socks off. What could possibly be a surprise for us at this point?
Even those extremely few who have seen the motor, have just seen its engine top cover. But they have have not been able to learn a single fact about it, e.g., its power level, nor even about a single one of its features, etc. Is it being hidden solely because of its looks? Because if it were to be seen it would confirm for us it is an OHV motor? Or something we have not imagined.
Rick is not the first source of someone reporting back that there are parts of it that will knock our socks off. Will be be its exterior, some special features, its interior, or all three? Or more?

What is your guess? Will it be something that no other sports/super car offers right now? DOHC or OHV probably wont knock anyone socks off. Active Aero? That's currently on the supercars at the moment. Adjustable ride height? Similar to the FGT?

All of the above, plus a price that will be way below the exotics
3LT Long Beach Red , Z51, FE4 , ZZ3, Black interior ,38S red stitching, Q8T, FA5, ER1, CFX, and R8C
1. I am hoping for a front end lift system...If we can get a front and rear lifting system, that would be amazing!
2. Active Aero is more of a novelty item to me, I do not planning on tracking the car and probably will not drive fast enough to benefit from AA.
3. Instead of a rear view mirror, what if they projected the rear view on inboard video screen?
4. What about a 360 degree camera system?
5. What about an alarm system that records from the 360 system once its armed?
6. Rev-matching is almost standard on sportscars today.
7. Voice activations such as "start" or a biometric thumbprint?
