That red, those Headlamps....so obviously Ferrari inspired.

Mmm, if you can't beat'em join'em

I'll give you headlamps Human. The color though? It could just as easily be construed as Guards Red.

Look at that grip, should be a hoot to drive! Can't wait to see one IRL.

3444lbs...wow. That's not that light.

I love this car for what it is and I hate this car for not being available in RHD. I'd have this over any F-Type even if I wasn't paying. A grand automotive heritage, the Corvette appeals to those who respect makers who doggedly hone, improve and steadfastly stick with a particular solution ethos or philosophy.

Since the weight has gone up, why in the world did they mess up the gear ratios starting from 4th gear and onwards
