May have yourself a collectable with line closed down
Haven't seen one bad review to date and saw somebody push one up to 178 MPH on a dried out lake.
Do wish the darn tracks are open, missing to many PCA events now that I am retired. Stay safe, sure we will be all good in about 6 weeks.

Lucky you, for the price, you can't go wrong with the C8. With the line shut down and I am not sure how many made it out the door, you may have yourself a nice piece of SN history. What number are you off the line if you don't mind the question? They easily could have got 100K for the C8, considering it is right up there with the Z06, but the car will do the advertising and that is no longer needed. Drove one of those through Hertz for a long weekend.

Especially their first generation Ventilators..
I can't imagine all the problems these devices are going to have AND the crazy response (and non-response) from GM if/when things go horribly wrong.
I would be SO MUCH more comfortable ending up on a Porsche Ventilator.

To wind up on a Ventilator built by GM is a VERY SCARY thought.

I watched that video last night. It was a great look at the performance of the C8 on track. The 3RS definitely pulls on the front straight, but everywhere else there did not seem to be any power deficit at all. Can't wait to see track videos with Cup2s.
This video reminded me of why I dislike the typical DE.

Nice video!
Note to self, dont get red dash accents!
Great video showing the general performance of the car. Nice easy oversteer in places, looks like a peach to drive. Sound doesnt do it for me; will be absolutely drooling for that Z06 with the high pitch v8!

Who decided white stitching was a good idea in the first place?

White stitching is cool...speak for yourself...oh wait.
Wow, pathetic. Chevrolet will always be...Chevrolet.
Yes it made it through QC, and it stated that new owners paid a "premium package" to get this detail.

The stitching is obviously terrible, but how about that panel alignment where the 2 sections are supposed to come together. They're probably off by 1/4". Guess they had to save some money somewhere.
