Wait so are you actually buying one OP? Or just letting the shiny new Government Motors hot wheels car cuck you?
The 2020 GT500 will absolutely run circles around the base C8 on a track. You're dilusional to even be making the comparison. The real performance comparison would be the Z06 C8... But that won't fit your narrative, because it will in fact cost more than the GT500. The GT500 is a touring car that will compete with Vetts, Porsches, etc.
Finally, this new base C8 would be lucky to outrun a C6 Z06. You're way overestimating it's trap speed capabilities because DueL cLuTCh Br0. The 13/14 GT500 has the C6Z covered power:weight. The 2020 GT500 is punching a class above it's weight. That's not a cheap thing to accomplish, however at the end of the day it will be somewhere in between the C8 base and C8 Z performance wise. Oh, and between them price wise as well, funny how that works isn't it?
Hahaha... Dude you think a manual tranny front engine c6z is going to be faster than this mid engine 8spd DCT state of the art C8 which is only down 10hp.
You also think a C8Z will be comparable to the GT500... you are high as a kite and also had nothing to back up your reasoning.. You probably paid an ADM on a 500 allocation didnt you.
Gonna hurt when you find out that the C8Z will be cheaper than the golden ticket 500 which the public apparently cant even buy and then destroys it in every measurable aspect.
Search of c6z weight:
C6 Z06: 3,131 lb (1,420 kg) C6 ZR1: 3,373 lb (1,530 kg) C6Grandsport: 3,400 lb (1,542 kg) C6 Z06Z07: 3,073 lb (1,394 kg)
CD:
It is also heavier: Chevy is quoting a dry weight of 3366 pounds, which means a likely curb weight of around 3600 pounds;
The c8 is nice and with good performance, but it is in no way revolutionary.
The base won’t come close to c7z06 performance, I expect the c8gs to do that probably at closer to $70k. And then the c8z to be faster still at over $80k.
At 495hp and 3600lbs it has the power to weight less than the 11 GT500. This is 9 years later...
As far as the copied nsx drivetrain from the 90’s....
I will give credit, the truck leaf springs are gone. Revolutionary!
I hardly give a shit. I can go to any chevy dealer and buy whatever corvette I want. Saying a shelby is more desirable than corvette is a flat out joke, chevy simply pumps out enough to meet demand, Ford does not. Lets see the sales figures comparing GT350 and corvette. I see 10 corvettes per one GT350.
They should have stopped with the exclusivity bullshit and produced as many FGT's as they could take orders for. The more you build the lower the cost goes right?
FGT is a special car but when your car is as dominant, get it into as many hands as you can.
Still waiting for a TT Coyote swapped example BTW
Well, golf clubs or a dead midget hooker.....yes, years ago... Even with a mid engine configuration you can stuff your golf clubs in the boot, very important for a vette

Go easy. He’s just reliving his high school drama club days.....Just a troll. I need to ban him again for fun.
Ur friend has a gs and a c7z but not a zr1? Lol tf is he thinking? Drop the z06 and get the last top dog front engine vette. SmhMe thinks this car is gonna hurt a lot of feeling at the track
One of the Docs I work with ordered one to go with his C7 GS and C7 Zo6, he is beside himself waiting for it. Another Doc I work worth ordered one as well
That's what I said lolUr friend has a gs and a c7z but not a zr1? Lol tf is he thinking? Drop the z06 and get the last top dog front engine vette. Smh
You're delusional my friend. The only place the GT500 will beat the BASE level C8 is on a 1/4 strip. That's it. This car with only 500bhp will LAP faster on any track. Trust me.
.
I'm curious, are you the colossal turd that writes those annoying ad headlines you see everywhere?

Chevy released images of the C8, OMG THE GT500 IS GARBAGE
Here is a no so flattering pic of one in white:

C6 Z06 running sub 3 sec 0-60 for the past 15 years stock. Yes. You can pick one up well below $60k.You're delusional my friend. The only place the GT500 will beat the BASE level C8 is on a 1/4 strip. That's it. This car with only 500bhp will LAP faster on any track. Trust me.
And this is just the base. You fools don't get it. This is Chevy's answer to the GT350R, not the 500. When they are done it will go like this...
C8 Base SMOKES GT350R and = to GT500
C8 ZO6 will DESTROY GT500 = FORD GT
C8 ZR1/ZORE will beat FORD GT, LAMBOS, FERRARIS, MCCLARENS
Chevy has made a platform to dominate the performance category . Everyone else is ****ED. They are gonna sell so many.
Yup, just wait until people see this cars lap times. I have. The 4300lp pig of a GT500 is gonna never catch up to a C8.
You really find one dumb thing and stick to that. 100lbs heavier but SO MUCH better engineered. We know we know the C6 is all you can afford, but you keep leaving out so many improvements that will easily make up for that 100lb gain. Like DCT, better Aero. Better Grip. Better weight distribution. Better everything. You sound so dumb defending the C6 over the C8. Just stop.
Mid Engine, Less than 60K, 0-60 in less than 3 seconds is not revolutionary? Ok, name me ONE other performance car that has achieved this. Sounds like a ****ING Performance revolution to me. You are really sounding so dumb lately. Just change your AVATAR to the C8 and embrace the reality of this car. It's epic. And this is just the beginning.
^^^^This.
This will also be the best selling Corvette, ever. Mark my words. Ford GT500s will be controlled supply that nobody can get. Only 25% will be Carbon Track. Why? WTF? Chevy will build as many as people want of the track pack edition. Not to mention all the interior / color options.
The FORD GT is so over rated. The McClaren 720s cost 200K less and SMOKES it. It's a cool car, but the hype is just that.
C6 Z06 running sub 3 sec 0-60 for the past 15 years stock. Yes. You can pick one up well below $60k.
You think the base c8 will be faster on track than the C7 Z06?
Interesting...I don’t see it!
What else did you say? Hmmm, nothing!
Not sure if this has been mentioned or not but a base C8 will not do sub 3 second 0-60, it is only the Z51 optioned C8 that will. And wonder how much that package will be? My bet around $10k.
Just look at it this way. The c6z weighs 500lbs less than the c8 with a bit more power! 15 years ago.Dude, if you find me a STOCK C6 Z06 that does 0-60 below 3 seconds I will wire $1,000 to you today. I've checked every single automotive test and the best ever was 3.6...most are 3.9-4.1.
Did you just pull that sub 3 second out of your ass?
Seriously, you know nothing about cars.
