Could be. Let's see if it works now????
Well, it appears to acting properly now. I know earlier it was not.
It was fine, someone hacked up the QUOTE tag, and the system attempts to do things like tag completion, which - if the tags don't match - just Fs up things, and then it just keeps propagating down through all the subsequent re-quotes.

Just to be clear, I have a GT350R and not a GT500 although I've driven one and thought long and hard as to whether I wanted it or the C8. The C8 won out, especially since I plan to keep my GT350R long term.

The C8 is insanely nice and comfortable for the price and it's definitely my first pick for DD. The interior is leather wrapped, the stereo is one of the best factory car stereo's I've ever heard, and it just feels rich. With mag ride it's a dream to drive also. The only downside, if it is one for you, would be that it sits lower to the ground and is a little tougher to get in and out of. It's no big deal for me.

If I had to get rid of one, the R would absolutely stay though. :)
Answered my question. Thank you. For my money, a GT500 at MSRP will beat the C8.

There will be more C8 corvettes on the Road the Kia Stingers saw 6 C8 Corvettes over the past 3 Days
Yup. There are three in the Midlothian area already. Several in Mansfield too. Before long, they will be like flies on manure.

I reached out to my factory friend again. He confirmed that the pictures I posted are in fact the last 2020 to roll off the line. 2021s are on the line behind it, but this is where the line stopped for the year.

Hello John, you were correct. Not really. @Goose17 was correct. It was the last 2020 produced. Devil is in the details.

I received a confirmation that backed up Tim's statement.

2021MY GT500 starts in Feb 2021.

Well one thing the C8 and GT500 have in common- late start for 2021 models! At least they are coming off the line and people are getting their dream cars. Just another thing for 2020!

A little clarification... the above picture is not a GT500. It is a 2021 Mustang of some sort... probably a 5.0. 2021s are now on the line, but the 500s might be delayed due to the cold weather. Earl said they should start in February.

So GT350s are wrapped up?

I like to disassemble things.
Just when I thought we could put the hose issue to bed...

Please revert back to my original statement.
Is this the post you are referring too, minus the quote failure?

Oh, so you are to blame for my poorly put together car!
These are the 2 posts that derailed the quote system.

We built the last GT350 the other day. We're still building the GT500. Your friend either misspoke or doesn't know what he/she is talking about.
