    In all fairness, as we grow older we tend to prefer classic designs better. Cars, furnitures, clothes.. etc.

    For me personally their V12's are beautiful, but on the other hand their V8's are meh...

    Monza SP2 is nice, however, its a very very limited production!

    With every passing they I get weaker in the knees for an 812, the closed version. Hoping for some depreciation. angry

    The 812 is definitely one of the cars worth getting before this whole EV revolution hits us. Smiley

    Even the F12 wouldn't be wrong.


    The F12 is much cheaper and the better looking car (subjectively of course). Smiley

    That's true! The F12 is more beautiful and elegant than it's successor. The 812 looks very fissured to me and I don't like the "extensions" of the front lights.

    wow, you could have not done a greater disservice to the Vette than posting that pic in this thread, it looks shockingly bad now next to the 812 SmileySmiley ... looks like one of those pontiacs with a body kit to look like a Ferrari and everything is out of proportion and crude... I don't know, I hope its the angle of that pic or something

    Of course, the proportions of the C8 Corvette are different than the Ferrari 812 Spider; one is rear mid-engined and the other has a front mounted v12.  That written, the Corvette will cost a fraction of the Ferrari and at that price, is an admirable effort.

    C'mon Nick, you are being ridiculous comparing a Vette to a Ferrari, they are not competitors, they are in two different leagues...

    I would wager if the Corvette had the Ferrari badge most would pick it over the 818 and 458.

    That does not make them right or for that matter your supposition that most would pick the rebadged Corvette.

    Smiley Agreed. Thank god (or hopefully?) the new Vette doesn't look this way.

    That is the new Corvette convertible.  It was first seen in the reveal video a few months ago.

    I was talking about the angle of the picture, which is very very unfortunate.

    Why did they leave the ‘Rear Axle Lift’ in up position for that photo?

    Reminds me of the 575 Superamerica....which, for some bizarre reason, I always had a soft spot for.  Total cruiser-mobile, but somehow had a presence.
