I really like the Rapid Blue, but I could be a bit biased :lol:

Speaking of Woodward... :D

I don't usually like tan interiors, but this looks good. I think that's the 'natural dipped' interior.

I like this version even better though.

That blue is something else. The bottom version interior is okay, but I really don't think I'd want a tan interior.

I don't mind that interior at all actually.. but that blue color.. not my thing. I prefer darker blues.

If you can get black interior with the gray inserts instead of the tan in the photo, I'd maybe go for that on a blue car. Now that I think about it, that might be exactly what I want (if the "Shock" color isn't available with the Z06).

Only thing I don't really like on the car is the squareish exhaust outlets.

I would like that or less inserts in red and maybe some red double stitching.

don't care for the blue. but I don't like "bright" colors on cars besides a really good red.

it's all so subjective anyways. :d ontknow:

Yup. I like the overall look of the car from what I've seen in pictures. I would assume a lot of aftermarket exhaust will probably be round.

But as Frode and Jeff say, I'll have to see it in person :lol:

[quote=""Mike""]Sadly the interior is smaller than the C7. I'm gonna sit this generation out too.[/quote]

I heard the C8 has more leg room than the C7? Is it the rest that is smaller?

There's like an inch more fore/aft travel for the seat. All the other measurements are similar to C7, but I think the way the interior is shaped and package ultimately makes it less roomy. The same thing happened with C7 vs C6.

[quote=""Mike""]There's an inch more seat travel, but leg room wasn't the C7's issue, it was headroom. The distance between the roof and seat bottomed out is still super short.[/quote]

Ah, I guess being 5'9" I never really have to deal with headroom issues :sigh:
