@gymratter, thanks for posting, great review. Talks about all the things I care about when considering a car.

I want that exact car....

Saw the ad for my first "used" one at a dealer today.

Someone is trying to flip for a profit there I believe.

Yep, I’ve seen a few of those as well.

It's a 3LT so it's not bad. Guessing the seller might even lost some money

I've finally started seeing C8's around town here and there and photos don't do it justice. I don't consider it a 'beautiful' car like a Tributo or 765LT, but it certainly stands out in a crowd (in a good way IMHO).

If I had money to buy any car, this would be it. I would skip porches, lambos, etc .. even a new Supra

Give me the LT1/LT2 with z51 and no extra crap

As others say, C8 is not a classically 'beautiful' car, but at least in video and pictures it is menacing and has real presence. I much prefer it without the rear wing, as I do with most street cars. I think prominent rear wings belong on racecars and look like a wank on a street car. Personal preference.

Sadly, I doubt I will ever see a C8 in person here in Australia. GM were meant to be bringing it here in proper RHD from factory (in very limited numbers), but between the death of GM Holden, Covid, all the expenses, the high price and low volumes, I can't see it happening. Hope I'm wrong - I would love to see some C8's on our roads.
