I'm waiting for actual production C8's to get tested by Car & Driver, R&T, etc. Fist production cars set for January 2020 release.
What about the Toyota SUPRA? Dealers demanding huge ADP's over MSRP. IMHO the Supra is DOA.
Will this take sales away from the GT500? it will. Especially if we can get some car mag test figures out there fairly quickly and those figures are impressive.
Considering the 0-60 times are with the Z-51 package; NPP exhaust, super sticky summer only rubber, electronic limited slip, etc. One has to add that package to the base under $60K, so $64K or $65 K to get those impressive times. Though there are rumors from a few Dealers that base is going to REALLY be under $60K like $58,900. And the Z-51 is thought to be cheaper than the normal $5K too. So those 3 second 0--60 times may only cost a bit over $60K?
Given the 60/40 weight distribution. Super sticky summer only performance tires, ELSD and the DCT..... under 3 seconds DOES seem attainable. It has nearly 500 hp it's all about hooking it up.
What a great time to be a car guy!
