I like the look of the C8, and the fact GM engineers are working to make sure the Vette does not suffer the same fate as the Viper.
Agreed, and what does this now allow the Camaro to become? The Camaro can stay in its current configuration and not even come close to worrying about approaching Corvette performance territory while still raising the bar tremendously. If they nail the exterior styling on the C8 it won't take long for the naysayers to crawl back into hiding.
