Spy Shots—Mid-Engine C8 Corvette

From SEMA:



Here’s the latest prototype of the mid-engine Corvette, including exclusive photos of the production taillights, a new rear wing and a look at the front fascia, thanks to some camo being blown off (note that the front fascia seen looks identical to the leaked photo from the Corvette factory back in October 2017).

The all-LED headlight cluster appears to house a multi-matrix LED configuration for the primary lighting unit. An white accent strip (orange when turning) resides at the top of the headlight cluster.

Things get even more interesting out back, with a first look at the production-intent taillights. The overall design direction of the taillights is highly reminiscent of the current C7 Corvette, with taillight elements featuring two vertical bars connecting a horizontal one. That pattern repeats four times on the rear end—twice on the driver’s side, and twice on the passenger side—much like on the C7 today.

An official debut is expected in late 2019 or first quarter 2020.

I’d love to see this car without the camo!

I hope that's not the ride height.

Being close to the motherland I wish they’d test the cars around here. Looking forward to the release.


Pick your poison.

Looks kinda camaroish with the tails and curvature of the rearend to me.

I know it's covered in camo but I don't have high expectations for the looks of the final release.

I'm hoping to be wrong.

I've got this picture in my head of what it's going to look like. Since I can't project that to paper, I'll have to just wait and see how close I am. LOL.

Boxy..... but good....

Looks like an original NSX.....which is not a good thing.

I’m hoping it’s very appealing to many and can help further drive the price of the used market down for C7 z06 so I can scoop one up next spring
