Looks amazing. Problem is that it cannot be tuned by another companies software. GM has a lock out feature and if that is true that really sucks.. This might give you a idea

If you're hoping a manual will come? They bluntly said... "NO". This may give Supra a chance if they bring the m azz nual to the car. Otherwise? I think it's the C8 for the win. If this car doesn't sell like hot cakes? The enthusiast market is truly dead. The vette is the holy grail of affordable cars. I'm sure other manufacturers that had plans of putting out a car are asking... " how do we top that?"

That's just like an open invitation/challenge for someone to figure it out. Odds are, they will pass mules to Callaway and Lingenfelter, as well as the secret tunnel maps of Area 51. |

So I guess we all have our standards. As far as the vette and tuning... 2016 was the only tunable camaro. Now look. Every camaro year has like 4 tune options. So many companies lock out their ECU then a year later. The tune is out.

Just going off my personal experiences... Being C7's n 6's have LT1s same transmission suspension etc. Not sure if the ECU's are the same but we both got locked out the same year. Not really propaganda. But anyway. .. Back to what I came back for.... Dude made a video comparing stats on competing cars. The C8 is bananas. I think I may take a trip to my dealer to crunch numbers. I think 70k will make a kool vette. I'm diggin' the fact it keeps up with cars or beats them with underdog hp numbers. https://youtu.be/m0e7H9faMbw
