Damn, that is going to be a sexy beast! Time for Chevy to have a 'dedicated' corvette/camaro dealer/shop -- like Acura, etc...
Special vehicles! -Don

Can I get some of those overhead LED poser lights so everyone can see who I am when I'm driving my car? Oh wait....
But seriously, I'm excited to see the new vette. Thanks for sharing! |

I know the purists are pissed that this car exists but there was a meltdown about the C7 taillights as well. Whatever, I hope the car continues to embarrass exotics.

Not sure about it. I really like the 2019s. I guess I'll wait to see it without the camo paint.

It'll be a killer. I can't wait to see what motor options there are. I hear the LT2 is a sure thing in the base model. Can't wait to get our hands on one.
I'm sure they'll make their way into the Camaro by 21. |
