Gold Member BOHICA Posted October 17, 2019 Gold Member Share Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) Miatas and boss 302 mustangs.... https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2019/10/car-and-driver-says-the-corvette-c8-z51-is-faster-than-the-c7-and-they-are-wrong/ I’ll save you the click and let you know that C/D discovered that the C8 could lap Grattan Raceway in 1:26.1, while the best the C7 could muster was a 1:27.0. It’s not uncommon to see a Boss 302 Mustang in Touring trim make a complete circuit of Grattan in about 1:21. I checked the results for some SCCA and NASA races at Grattan in 2018 and 2019, and saw that the 1:27 range is about what you would expect from a, ahem, Spec Miata.

Woodtick Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Does anyone know how many C8s have been sold. They had one down the road from me for appointment only test drives. The car was only there for a few days and the appointments booked up in minutes? It’s going to be a hot seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure you can pre buy with a deposit? Dealers that have sold more Vettes in the past,get to sell more pre orders. Each dealer gets to sell a set amount of pre orders. That’s how I as told it worked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order one, but you cannot buy one until they’re built and delivered. But yes dealers are allocated a certain number they can take orders for, and not all Chevy dealers have access to the C8 just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
