C8 mid-engine corvette. GM loves their people.

There was an article the other day where the wheels and tires was stolen off a 2020 Vette. The car was sitting 4 miles from GM headquarters in Detroit. The car didn't have a manufacturer licence plate on it. No one knows who owns the Vette. When the newspaper called GM on it. They had no comment. The picture showed a black Vette with no wheels and tires sitting on blocks.

So much for getting the carbon fiber package. Cancelled.

Maybe it was target advertising for a new niche consumer market for those who like to put vehicles on blocks in their front yards?

A true enthusiast would have never wasted his time writing this trash.

Jalopnik and similar sites literally post trash out their ***. I mean I guess us here are forums are suspect to doing the same, but those sites are trying to pass as news sites of sorts.

So much speculation over a a car that hasn't really hit the road yet. It was an exciting reveal, no doubt, though.

UNKNOWN_370 · 02-20-2020, 09:43 AM

Wow.... this car is awesome. Surprised they chose the tires I use as a base tire. The ps3+as are so good. I dont feel the need for a summer tire. And I get an extra 3 months of usage. Lol.

A few of them landed here last week.
I would assume purchasers will take delivery in the next few days.
Looking forward to first person reviews soon.

Let the games begin. Ruin a perfectly good car treating it like a shitebag Camaro and not the sophisticated machine it is lol

serial 000001 dropped off in NC just a while ago. Rick Hendrick is the owner.

old guy · 03-19-2020, 09:25 PM

Hendrick owns and has owned many of the first production vettes and has auctioned them off for charity and then repurchased them

He’s a very generous man

Muh Corvette

ZCanadian · 03-20-2020, 05:01 PM

Glad to see they are practicing social distancing (sarcasm), just to get a photo of a car!

Firebase99 · 03-31-2020, 10:56 AM

Saw a white one Sunday. Followed it to Starbucks, lol. Had passenger window down while the order was placed. I told the pretty young blonde driving it was a gorgeous car. She just picked it up last week. Traded her 2019 ZR1 in for it....

UNKNOWN_370 · 04-03-2020, 09:34 AM

Corvette is already talking 2021 changes.
