Sad to say no. Only a two car garage when we downsized 4 yrs ago. 21 with 10,000 miles dealer gave me 48k and I paid MSRP on the special order C8.

Nice looking car! I have sat in one but not driven one yet. I need to do so.

I have never owned a car without three pedals. That was a requirement when I bought the Bullitt. And I'd have a difficult time getting rid of it. In fact, the only thing I've driven with a DCT is my Honda Talon. That rips shifts like no tomorrow and is a blast to drive.

3rd pedal noted. Mach 1 was A10. After I attended Track Attack I knew my mistake. That Tremec is some sweet deal. Never knew about line lock, rev match, hill assist etc. This DCT does slam every gear. Never tried paddle shifting. Sounds so lame.

Thanks, you sound like one of the guys in the C8 forum. Be Well!
So guys in the C8 forum are saying that C8's are ugly? Weird.

They are masterpieces with all the rice appendages removed.....pure sculpture.
meh, depends on your generation. I grew up with a C1, a C3 and a short-lived C4 in our garage. I then bought a C5 later in life and loved it too. For many, the C7 was the pinnacle of corvette production and the C8 (although a fine car in its own right) is a bit too European for the die-hards, myself included 😉

C7 is my favorite Vette.

Yeah it sure does look like a euro copy...straight from Italy plus rice.. interior is great. I had a 72 and an 82 they were great for getting the hottest girls and cruising with great interior design and seats.
