I know it’s not an F-Type but I figured with a bunch of car people around here someone would know. I can’t put my finger on it and they are completely de-badged.

 

Those are C8 Corvettes

 

Thanks!

No offense to anyone that owns one, but I was hoping it was something better like a load of Ferraris. I thought maybe they ran out of enclosed trailers.

 

If they were Ferrari's, it would be the East coast supply.

 

This.

 

I'm not convinced they look better with the cover off. There are a couple I've seen locally, and from certain angles they look like an aggressive supercar, and others, like a Hot Wheels (tm) designed by a 5th grader. Still, better looking than their predecessor. When you're driving it you don't have to look at it, so there's that.

 

no hate here. I don’t think it looks bad at all. Something is a little off on the tail lights, but other than that I think it looks good. The mark up’s on it thought are ridiculous.

I don’t know why but when I saw these pictures, I immediately thought of a bunch of Honda civics trying to steal the truck.

 

I'm not hating it, just not liking the whole package. The front and back look like they came from different cars. I can see that they'd want some design continuity from the previous model, but they picked the part I liked the least from the predecessor to carry forward.

 

They are a performance bargain for sure! Hard to believe the price for what you get.

After the C1, the C7 was the first Corvette I had an interest in. I would seriously consider a C8. I think GM finally got it right (although I agree it can look pregnant from the 3/4 rear angle).

 

Does that mean you look like a baby when you get out?

 

Frankly, I was angling for a C8 (which we're not quite available when I got my R) or a used Vantage when I starting sports car shopping. I like just about everything about the C8 aside from some busyness at the rear. Factor in some legit performance chops and an aftermarket that's overloaded with interesting improvements and options, it's a pretty compelling as a sports car bargain. But...I couldn't stomach paying at or above sticker and I was just too over the moon with the Jags looks. I think the C8 looks better in the flesh than pictures which tend to inflate the rear proportions (to my eye).

 

You'll really enjoy the new VW advertisement on UK TV. Keep you amused for hours.

At last they've found out how to make their cars look attractive!

Edit: just to point out my comment refers to the previous VW advert post.

 

I think the bang for the buck (MSRP) is amazing and the car to me looks great. I believe they will continue to improve on the look. I am just sad to say I doubt I will ever buy one because they will be all over the streets. Similar to a Camry-doesn't mean it is a bad thing but just means everyone and their brother realize its a great car for the money.

 

Yep, there's some truth to that...

 

i agree they look like 2 different cars. front end could be a ferrari or nsx with the mid engine architecture. i hate the back end. it makes it look like a corvette but it ruins the car IMO. it IS a huge performance bargain and i might consider one in 3 or 4 years, after GM has worked out the bugs. i'd never buy the first year of a major overhaul, especially one by GM.

You would never see such hideous exhaust tips on a Ferrari, haha.

 

we dont get the older ones here and tbh I prefer the front engined style, but the bulbous **** on these looks much better with a big wing on it
