I mean for that matter, JDN just said the Cadillac "halo vehicle" won't be available until after 2022. So...

I wanna know what those trucks are....I'm assuming HDs? Can't really see them very well in the photo.

Speaking of trucks.....are we still expecting a refresh for the GM mid-size twins for 2019...or that a no go?

EDIT: Oops...thought this was the general car news thread...

FenwickHockey65 · 03-30-2018, 02:59 PM

That was the rumor but no other info's come up. I believe the 3rd gen midsize trucks are due for 2022.

That won't happen because mid size cars are not selling.

Look at the poorly named but awesome SS,GM hardly moved them.

Even the Police want SUV's and Crossovers now.

Those brakes look a lot like the base C7 Z06 brakes.

Chevrolet Teases the Mid-Engine C8 Corvette at its Dealer Meetings in Las Vegas
Corvette Blogger

April 4, 2018

Our friend Nate Chandler of New York’s Van Bortel Chevrolet is one of the dealers in attendance at the meetings. He posted on Facebook late last night that Chevrolet has teased dealers with a glimpse of the future Corvette. In his Facebook post he says:

“Caught a glimpse of the next gen Corvette at Chevy’s Find New Roads dealer conference. It is coming, it looks very mid-engined! The teaser was part of the General Session where phones and recording devices were not permitted. I can’t wait to find out more!”

Nate also hit the Corvette Forum where he posted this:

“I just left the General Session presentation by GM/Chevy at the “Find New Roads” Dealer’s Conference at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas. We got a glimpse of the C8 Corvette. It is coming. GM called it a super car. The 2 pictures we saw showed very little, but I’m thrilled to share I caught a glimpse of the production car. It definitely looked mid-engined. The front hood reminded me of a lotus. Front bumper cover reminded me of the 2019 ZR1. Time to go party at the reception. If I bump into Brian Sweeny, US VP of Chevy, or other GM Execs, I will ask some questions and report back!”

mid engined is just not a corvette to me. i'm curious where they are going with the C8, is the price going up? are they aiming for lower sales?

FenwickHockey65 · 04-05-2018, 07:27 AM

Most sources have said C8's base pricing will still be in the same ballpark as the C7's.
