C8 being for kids is what Corvette needs or do you want it to die with your generation? Notice the great reduction of the average age of Corvette owners since the C8 came out?

I am not saying you need to like the C8, but it has done a lot of good for the Corvette brand.
I agree hp has reached a point in factory offerings that streets, traffic, and tires can't keep up with. When I read of folks wanting to be cars and coffee hero's with their dyno numbers and the $$$ that cost and inability to really use it on the streets I shake my head.
They did a fantastic job making it look and perform as it does. I love that paint color I prefer it's looks to the other far more expensive brands.


I wanted to get one but 3 things stopped me
price wasn't at all what they advertised it to be
reliability plays a huge factor in my decision and major trans and engine failures reported by some made it a no for me
I have aged out of sports cars, I don't need to explain what that is
