    So they copied the NSX lol.

    I'm glad it still has a V8 however, the diluting of the Corvette brand has now begun... just like the morons at Ford who signed off on giving the Mach E a Mustang badge. Next is going to be a corvette SUV to put the final nail in the coffin.

    Is it really diluting the Corvette name? I see it like a shot of 170hp nitrous when required. With car like the tesla plain making over 1100hp in a 4 dr sedan guy are trying to make up the difference in acceleration.

    I’m sure many of us saw this coming when they announced the new rear engine Vette, and yes, it is a significant performance improvement, but also a big addition of weight, which will of course dilute the driving experience.

    68% of failures are due to infant mortality. Check the warranty and assess the value of your time.

    Maybe I'm just being an old crabby guy.
    The Vette was always a V8, manual, RWD monster.
    The fact that they're working on an SUV really is something terrible. It is practically diluting the brand and going against everything the vette was.
