Convertible prototypes are on the road

Still have a cover over the back.Slow playing.....
I think I would slightly prefer the profile of that version, but not enough at this point to get me off that beautiful coupe.2020 Convertible, Torch Red, 2LT, NPP, Natural, GT1, E60, Q8Q, perpetual status 3000Comment

The test convertibles have been seen almost as long as we've been seeing cars on the road - I wrote about the visible differences back in the spring of 2018. They have been more careful in covering the rear area and the convertible will presumably get it's own reveal in the near future I hope.2020 C8 Corvette.D.O.B 2/03/2020

There has been rumor that production of convertibles will coincide with the coupe. Again I feel the coupe with removable Targa top and the rear deck engine compartment. with a window is a great choice, IMO I just love that window in Ferraris. I think it is the coolest thing on the car.👍 1Comment

I'm fortunate (in truth, it's a mixed blessing) enough to have an F430 Targa in the garage. The best thing about it is that pricey-to-replace window over the engine. I'd prefer a C8 drop-top when I get one, but no window will drive me to the coupe; a nice C6 or C7 drop-top can fill my "plein air" hankerings.Comment

Please do not get your hopes high that the HT’s production will start when the coupes does.

OK, but by saying that, in that way, the implication is that you know something? Or just a best guess? So what is your best guess as to convertible availability?2020 C8 Corvette.D.O.B 2/03/2020

GM will later come out of the closet with more information, and just like we waited for what seemed to be eternity for the C8 Stingray coupes reveal, the wait for the HT convertible will also be worth it.
Ask yourselves this question please. If the HT convertible were going to start production the same time as the the coupe, and as we know they have been testing together for years, including most famously at the N’Ring middle of last September, why would not GM have revealed it last Thursday.
There is a specific minimum time for initial orders to go in before production starts, and if GM a) announces prices only for the coupe on August 15th, and then b) when the first consensus starts roughly a month to six weeks afterwards GM does not allow orders for HT convertibles to go in at that time, both those things would be confirmation that the HT convertible starts down the production line after the coupe.
Moreover, looking at previous generations, convertibles following couple production has been the pattern for the last three Corvette generations — sometimes for a long period of time. However, this time the delay will be less than many previous gens.

There will probably be such a huge demand for the coupe that they need to crank them out for some time before the vert can be brought out.
Troyce, the back of that F430 is just about the most awesome sight to me in the auto world. Have never owned one but drove one around Vegas one time.2020 Convertible, Torch Red, 2LT, NPP, Natural, GT1, E60, Q8Q, perpetual status 3000Comment
