I just wish it had a V6 option with 18-inch wheels for the incredibly bad roads our city has.
Something fun to drive with about 350hp would be perfect for my uses and skill level. I've considered a 718 but paying that much money for a 4 banger is dumb. |

I still can't get over the styling. Hopefully the Z cars will have enough performance to make me get over it.

Why not get a used M2. You can find 2016-2017 with under 25k miles for mid 30's. If you want a 2018 they are high 30's to low 40's with under 15k miles. If you want an M2C, those can be had for $50k or so.

Yep, the wheels are terrible. Bad designs, bad offsets and the car needs to be lowered a little. All of that helps, but there's still some things about the design that just look clunky and tacky to me.
I feel like the C8 aesthetic design is in the uncanny valley for me. It's so close to being great, but "off" just enough that I can't stand it. |

Wheels look Supra-ish to me. Same difference I suppose.

I may look at them again now that it's been out for a while. They got the proportions right for the design. The M2C is too hardcore for 99% of my driving. I need sharp, but not harsh. (the Miata had to go when the wife's back couldn't take the seats on a road trip)

Yeah, that too.
I was thinking these 86 TRD(?) wheels. https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/mL...irst-drive.jpg (man, that 86's facia is horrible...) |

IMO, the spoiler and the (black) side air intakes kill the looks for me. Either way, bet more than a few early gotta-have-it adopters are kicking themselves regarding the announcement for the 2021 model. Like the Zupra buyers.

AWD E-Ray? Wish there was a 6MT and I could talk myself into an AWD Vette, even if it's a bitch ass hybrid.

Consensus on Corvette Forum seems to be that gmauthority article is BS. I guess we will see, but I happen to be one of those in the camp that massive amounts of HP is not needed. Make it rev high and scream (assuming it can last) and I would be all over that. 600HP for the Z06 is plenty.

That said, I noticed that used Evoras are becoming reasonable. |

So what color Would you order? Seems like you really got check it out in person deciding color. She gets 21 order spot I can use. I don't know, I'm not sure I'll like the driver side with that big long Column of crap down the side esp. with my claw..I give [GM] credit they kept msrp as quoted from early statements. Some teething issues like others.

I like the arctic white on this car. If RC car, I'd do something like that Red Mist.

Not red maybe the mist. Everbody went for red.
Last Sunday we went around the lake couldnt help notice the drama at your place. Then you went silent for a while. I know while back you said you had some issues. Hope things worked out for you Avanti. |
