I said it would leak ahead if time. They always do.

I know. I have no idea why they keep giving the media the pics beforehand with the promise they won't leak. Happens every time.

I think it is done on purpose. GM and all of the other companies seem to do it. They know it will leak. Maybe they want it to leak on purpose, it's more publicity.

That interior looks so sick. Looks like a winner inside and out. Never really cared for the Corvette until now...

GM is definitely taking a chance. I like the risk they are taking. I will be interested to know how well it does. I am on the fence about how successful it will be. Sports cars like the R8, NSX are definitely having a hard timing moving.

interior is wild, amazing, and a bit bizarre. for a corvette, it's awesome!

that line of buttons is a huge fail though.

If (?) that is the actual C8 interior, they obviously designed it to look like the cockpit of a military fighter jet.

Great launch presentation.

The configurator Mark Reuss announced has already gone down though...

Yeah, nice specs and pricing!

thankfully, that whole row of buttons is for the climate control

here's a cool function: 2" lift that you can memorize through GPS, up to 1000 locations.

I love it. I'm more interested in this than the supra

Not surprising as everyone more than likely tried to configure one. Either way I'm very impressed with this car.
