I don’t usually care about that kind of thing but holy moly, would look better without any contrast stitching at all

Stitching on my 2SS 1LE is perfect. That has to be some crazy one off, like the right headlight on this Porsche:

Hopefully these engines fare better than the Voodoo motors in GT350 but I somehow doubt it.
I saw a few C8s this weekend at car events and something about it is just not right. The proportions or the way it sits makes it look like a kit car. If you park it next to a Ferrari or McLaren- it sticks out like a sore thumb. |

Chevy can’t get stitching to line up, body panels straight, wheels that don’t bend if you breathe on them but they will develop a brand new flat plane crank V8 that revs to 9k rpm with zero issues. Well let’s see i guess but it is highly unlikely.

they gotta cut costs somewhere. up close you can definitely see where they did that (body plastics look cheap, exhaust tips not perfectly contoured to the bumper, panel gaps. They gave the base c8 a horrendous wheel/tire package that is a few inches too small for the wheel well. the brakes are very tiny compared to entry level exotics as well (even the f80 has larger front discs 13.3 vs 15 inch).
anywho... anxious to see the specs on the the z06 w/ z07 pack ! looks like the reveal will be in 30 minutes.

Looking like 660hp/470tq.
If you're worried about misaligned stitching you should probably be prepared fork out another $100K+ for the same performance and a little better interior quality. Don't know where you're going to find another FPC NA V8 though... EDIT: I'm sorry, officially 670hp/460tq. I mean I guess there's the M2CS for probably similar money if you want better feeling knobs and switches. Last edited by See5; 10-26-2021 at 11:11 AM.. |

very impressive numbers by chevy. making 20 more ponies than the outgoing supercharged v8 in the C7. All while revving to the moon without any forced induction. bravo
I haven't found anything on weight aside from the C&D article mentioning it will be around 37-3800 pounds? hopefully thats not true. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a3...-z06-revealed/ |

The C8 has to be light to be doing 0-60 in 2.6 seconds! Its hard to believe its going to be doing that in the real world when its not 4WD.

you do realize the difference between 'capable and actual doing' correct ?

A lot of owners have been able to replicate the C8 base 0-60 manufacturer time. The launch control and weight over rear wheels is key. I don't see the Z06 being any different.
