Corvette to become its own brand?

it looks like a pontiac soltice, in my opinion.

I don't think either "Chevy" or "corvette" when I see a c8. I think "fiero."

It's funny, because I like this version better than any since my 66. Of course, they have already killed the flat plane crank done right version. Didn't need a new vette anyway.

Huh?

I read somewhere that GM was going to kill the 5.5 because of emissions standards in 2024. Must have been an April fools.

Fake news for sure.

None of the OEM's were caught flat footed by these mileage announcements. They know all about these changes and plan accordingly far ahead of John Q public knowing anything about it. ~5,000 units out of 2,500,000 sold a year won't even make a tiny dent in the CAFE numbers for them.

Thanks.

I was on the road and figured I would read the details when I got home. Glad its fake, and maybe ford will improve theirs as well.
