Nice video clips of Red C8 - Great Stance / Sound

That is one b****in' looking automobile. And looking at the back end in sunlight, rather than the very directional overhead lighting at the reveal, it looks a whole lot better to me.
I don't think it looks like a Ferrari, as some complainers say, but it definitely has those exotic car proportions and stance. Maybe it's time for another red car. Take the Corvette and Stingray badges off the back, and people will probably be complementing me on my "Ferrari."Delivered 5/29!: Scarlet Fever 2021 2LT HTC, Red Mist Metallic Tintcoat, two-tone Naturalw/ suede inserts, Mag Ride, Performance Exhaust, MRR 755 Gunmetal wheels

Sounds reasonable, helps prevent possible damage in transport I guess. Also noticed that the badge on the hood was missing, maybe for similar reasons. Or maybe it's installed just before the car is shipped.
Man, in that first segment with the red Vette slowly rolling by, that 3LT fully-dipped Natural interior looks great! Too bad my budget won't extend that far.

Most of the test C8's I see do not have the front emblem on.Z06 coming late this summer: Hypersonic Gray HTC, two tone blue interior, complete high wing/aero package.

Remember when drag race cars would have the front end raised up to assist weight transfer to the rear tires? I wonder if the same applies here? Will the C8 launch better with the optional front lift activated?Black over Sky Cool Gray.....2LT.....Z51.....FE4.....E60.....
