Thanks to Adam Hamade for this capture. I love when he enthusiastically exclaims, “It’s bad *** like a McLaren,” then adds, “it’s like a Ferrari!!!”

Good thing GM is going to two shifts, for they will sell mega amounts of them.

I said the same thing on the other forum John! LOL

Its very telling that these guys sound like young(er) car enthusiasts. A very good sign if GM is wanting/trying to attract a younger demographic.

FrankLP, I sent you a private message. Thanks for giving it a look.

The "it's like a Ferrari" comment, and the comment on the apparent youth of the person who recorded the video are interesting. Reading some of the comments from traditional (e.g., older) Corvette owners on places like Facebook and other forums, I see the comment "It looks like a Ferrari" stated as a negative. As in "It doesn't look like a Corvette any more."

It'll be interesting to see how the age demographic of the C8 breaks down compared to the C7 and earlier cars.

meyerweb, really good points. If the age of the C8 owner drops to 50 (now around 61), GM will be doing the “happy dance.”
