The Vert is for lazy people and besides if you get one you can't show off the engine.

Hmm, for lazy people... care to articulate? I have no skin in this game, but this feels like a wild shot.

Mine would be a vert. Hardtop verts are my thing.

After careful consideration and no outside influence I would go with the C8 as a coupe. Since the top can be removed it’s just about the same as a Vert. Still prefer my Camaro as a Vert tho.

Ah, to dream.

Got my first really good walk around personal look at a C8 at the dealership on Saturday (Jimmy Gray in Southaven, Adam). Absolutely drop-dead gorgeous, but the cockpit looked really tight, especially for someone who might be considered to be a little larger than average . I think I'll stick with Camaros for now...

Wonder if it is still there. Will have to drive down Wednesday and look at it. Yeah that’s my concern. The C7 has a tight enough cockpit.

It's the Vette version of Crush Orange. Sitting right out front. It was a pre-sold ordered car so they won't let you get in it, though (which is reasonable, if it was mine I wouldn't even want it sitting out front where people could touch it). Looked really tight in the elbow region to me. That wraparound dash and console looks cool, but not so sure about the ergonomics.

If you do go by watch for a transporter for me. I've got a Wild Cherry ZL1 on the way that should be showing up sometime this week...

I’m roughly the same. So means I will have issues. Shame.
