🚘 Automotive The official C8 Corvette thread

[Broke EF]

That interior shot looks a lot like the shots that came out a while back. I wouldn't be surprised if that is it, or very close to it.

I am up at 5, and usually go to sleep between 11 and 1. Ill be up but probably wont watch, just read in the morning.

SUPPOSEDLY, this is the interior that just leaked online. I'm going to say photoshop but who the hell knows at this point.

OK, I'm going to beat this horse again....WTF is that giant wall separating the driver and passenger with the single column of buttons...

 

[Gone_2022]

I pray those buttons are photo shopped. Otherwise wtf?

 

[Omicron]

Why does a mid engine rwd car need such a huge center tunnel area?

Their learning from the SHOOOOOO

In this day and age where clickbait means $$$ everything is photoshopped

Gotta get those clicks.

air intake in front of car for ram air to mid engine....

 

[Lead Pipe]

You guys are cry babies. That interior looks world class. I'm not crazy about the buttons but as a whole it's fantastic.

Their learning from the SHOOOOOO

The SHO has a giant waterfall, but at least it's even-ish...the C8 picture looks like it has some weird wall with buttons on top, like they were trying to copy a fighter jet cockpit or something

 

[DEEZUZ]

That 3.5 ft row of buttons is a joke. Hope to fuck not that's it.

 

[DEEZUZ]

You'll be reaching behind you to press buttons and leaning forward to touch screen

I’m super pumped for this. Not sure if it will be big or a total bust, but I think it’s a pretty big step for Chevrolet and the future or Corvette.

 

[TonzKnock-G]

I’ll be up but will probably forget.

 

[Mook]

Well, I'll hopefully have some help live updating tonight.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Well, I'll hopefully have some help live updating tonight.

Do you have a link to where it will be announced?

 

[Mook]

First post links to Chevys site where they'll have it. I'm gonna look for a YT stream closer to showtime.

 

[Mook]

WELP this is probably it. Thanks to [MENTION=3061]Lead Pipe[/MENTION] for the quick heads up.

 

[IceCreamAssassin]

I dig it, even more if it wasn’t red

 

[95SC]

GM new car reveal at 10pm , 11pm ET LOL. 99% buyers are old Grandpas that go to sleep at 7-8pm .

 

[Sprayin]

Sweet Fiero

COT DENG that looks quite impressive, a mix of a lot of other super cars with the Vette touches to make everyone remember it's Merican.

 

[Sprayin]

I sure hope that interior isn't right. It's so bad.

 

[Kensington]

All the buttons on that “wall” should be things that should be controlled via the infotainment screen. Why in ever living fuck do the buttons even exist?! I am also inclined to believe it’s real, because the spy shots we’ve seen, have also had it.

Gas tank maybe like the Fiero

Info is leaking out -

First up, the engine. According to the leaked info from Esquire, it's a 6.2-liter V8 dubbed LT2 as we expected, developing an impressive 495 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. Equipped with the Z51 Performance Package, this car is expected to hit 60 mph in less than three seconds. Mind you, this is the base model Corvette and if you want a comparison, the current 755-hp C7 ZR1 does the same sprint in 2.8 seconds. That's not a bad way to introduce a completely new platform.
