So now that you have been driving this C8 Z51, how would you compare it to past Corvettes you have driving ?
Do any racing with it ?

Really needs that C8 foldaway license plate bracket for like carshows, etc

My previous Corvette was a C5 I bought new in 2003. I liked it a lot…. I sidestepped the C6 and C7, but I just had to have a mid engine C8 and RHD too!. What’s not to like! I spec’d it with everything, and it took over 2 years to get it. I’ve got 1200 miles on it so far, and I’m looking forward to putting a bunch more on it this year. It’s a great car to drive.

So, have you honored the Corvette history by getting a speeding ticket ? :)
The waxers are going to have fits seeing your Z51 C8 in the rain ! :)
I think that wide front license plate should on purpose fall off and get lost
