Ok, so the cat’s out of the bag. I like Corvettes. How can you tell I wonder? This beauty is parked around the neighbourhood. Obviously it has the centre mounted engine which comes with the 2020, 2021, and soon to be produced 2022 C8 models. As much as I like the newer design, at the moment, the previous C7 design is my preference (for now anyways). How about you, what do you think of the new centre engine design?

I have always loved Corvettes but I haven't been keeping up with them lately, didn't realize they'd started doing the center mounted engines. Not sure how I feel about that but I still wouldn't mind testing one out.

Got a favorite Vette model of all time? The '63 with the split rear window will probably always be mine. When I was a kid my dad took us to the factory and museum in Bowling Green, it was badass. Just wish I'd had a dslr with me then.

The 1967 427 has always been one of my favs, but if I was buying today, would likely get a newer C6 or C7. In perfect world, maybe both..

That's a beast, I like the car already. I prefer the second picture because I like being able to access the frontal vise of the car. I was however begining to imagine how the colored photos would look like. Great shots.

These are beautiful and eloquent photos with very classic angles to capture the lines of the car... Since the C8 versions the Corvettes look too much like the European supercars... I'm not saying it's bad and I understand that it's something to improve performance and make it more driveable and more competitive in the market... But I think you'll miss a lot those "huge and long" front parts that made you think: "It's a pure American sports car" as soon as you saw it... :-) - But it's a matter of evolution I guess!.... ;-( Anyway, I'm waiting for a 911 Porshe to appear, with front electric motor, front wheel drive and.... The Apocalypse will begin!... ha ha ha ha :-))

Thanks a lot for sharing friend @daveks... Cheers!

I have to be honest. It is pretty nice!

But give me a '63 Stingray!
