The C8, for a bit more, already gives you that, plus 2 cylinders (not to mention Supra fans want to throw in a 2JZ into the current Supra), sub-3 second 0-60,probably 200mph given the C7 Z51 did like 190, a targa top, probably gonna see the thing continue its LeMans GT success, made in 'murica. I mean the interior seems more bonkers as well.

I am aware the SF90 is probably going to run circles around the C8, but the C8 is every bit of what a supercar has been the past decade when it comes to the fundamental blueprint. It's so crazy to think such money can buy that now.

The Supra didn't seem so bad, and started getting my interest with the power bump revealed, but GM just came about with the best car on planet Earth as of the past few days.

Mind right now is saving up for hopefully a late 2020 or 2021 purchase — there will hopefully be less likelihood of premiums and major issues will also hopefully be figured out. Manual transmission aside, this is literally the car I feel a lot of people were looking for from any manufacturer that has been involved with sports cars.


Many will want to dismiss these cars cuz their favorite car company didnt do it. But the vette is king and Supra is the prince right now. If the supra was a Z and the vette was a GTR? You would hear the neverending praises. Its kool though. What's good about not being a FANBOY but being a REAL enthusiast. The experience means so much more than the brand. I love any company supporting the cause. I'm as loyal as the next new sports car. Abandon the enthusiast. I abandon the company. See you when you get your head straight and build a sports car fitting to be competitive.

Thank you Chevy. Thank you Toyota.

Just praying chevy is lying about the camaro and hoping nissan wakes up from their coma.

On the short run I'm looking at a ZL1 but on the long term? I may get the Vette or Supra.

Mazda just designed an inline 6 for sport applications. It's about to get real!
