What Corvette would you want? Any model any year but stock and not for resale.

68 L88

1980 C3 305 "California"
Yeeaaap. Now there's a rare bird.

The one I own.

2014 lime rock green manual

the only real one. before they got gay

>>28477311 (OP)
1963 Chevrolet Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina

>>28477336
>muh gay

>>28477339
what about your gay

>>28477336
>2 speed automatic only
>no V8
Sounds kinda gay. That's not a 1955.5 model that would have had the newer 265ci V8 and an available manual transmission (look for the large V in the Corvette script on the fender)

>>28477311 (OP)
Not really pic related, but I'd wish for a C4 ZR-1.

ZR1X

>>28477311 (OP)
Either a 1990 C4 or a C5 Z06. Both manual obviously.

the most recent one... if im gonna actually use it i dont want a shitbox from more then 20 years ago, all you guys are delusional or boomers.

"oh yes please give me the brittle unreliable and annoyingly inconvenient performance car from the 80s that could be outperformed by a nissan juke and that screams from the exaust despite not going fast at all, yes please!"

(gif related is you trying to justify)

>>28477311 (OP)
C2 or the C8 Z51 with no magnetic dampers.
C2 is classy
C8 is one of the best cars ever. I don’t think the ZR1 Tt engine is appealing and I’d consider a Z06 or e-Ray. I like corvette racing yellow and the clear top.

>>28477311 (OP)
Technically stock, the C5R homologation car

>>28477749
>that could be outperformed by a nissan juke
Pic rel. Now with this information in mind you can go kill yourself benchracer.

>>28477311 (OP)
Stock? C6 ZR1. If I could mod it would be an early C3 which is the best looking corvette.

C8 ZR1 for speed
C2 427 tri power for sovl

>>28477311 (OP)
C6 z06

>>28477311 (OP)
1989 6 speed targa with cloth seats

>>28477311 (OP)
c7 base model, red paint

As a camaro owner,
C8 Z06 is the only corvette worth buying.
The rest are basically camaro+more power/lighter/sportier
Mid engine is the best change to differentiate it, plus an exotic sound from the flat plane high revving v8.

>The rest are basically camaro+more power/lighter/sportier
Basically a Camaro but actually good?

>>28479669
well if you are a tryhard boiracer i could see why you would choose a corvette over a muscle car

>>28477311 (OP)
Why would anyone want anything other than the newest and most expensive

>>28477311 (OP)
Easy. The Seethe unit.

>>28478577
Beat me to it and in this exact color too. Runner up is a c6 427 but with the valve drop fixed.

While I get the MARKETING and BUSINESS reasons why Chevy shifted the C to midship/rr.
I fucking hate out the big 3 autos have been killed out by business types and soulless merchants from their "MUH SIZE" and implementing planned obsolescence, using xenophobia/rasicm when folks switched to jap cars in the 80s because they were better and had better MPG, continued their shitty car building ways getting bailed out every fucking recession by the tax payer, etcetc.

Killing the old FR corvette is just another soulless merchant move and they should be ashamed.

>Killing the old FR corvette is just another soulless merchant move and they should be ashamed.
You are genuinely fucking retarded, the C7 corvette was the peak of FR, RR offers so much more capability in terms of handling.
Kill yourself for such a retarded take, if they made another FR corvette you would just say "b-but this isn't any different from the C7"
You're too poor to afford it anyway.

>>28477359
My fave too

>>28477316
Patrician taste. 1967, though.

Btw all your failures in your life are YOUR fault and no one elses.

C5 Z06

Whatever holds the most value.

C8 is lame as all hell, a budget Ferrari.

>>28478597
Based

>>28479705
Because I have taste and I'm not chasing Instagram clout or golddiggers

>>28479777
They always wanted to do RR and the way that GT3 regulations and BoP is set up mid engine cars are simply the best for actually winning races

>>28479990
There is nothing budget about it. It cost way more than Ferrari to develop, had better materials than Ferrari can afford, and costs less because they make 10x the number to make up the cost. It’s literally ideal for the consumer a with the sole exception of ‘look how unique I am’ fags

did c5s spike in price? i remember seeing them for 10-15k 2 years ago, now it seems they're all over 20

>>28480023
When you say taste what are you referring to? Looks? The new corvette looks nicer

>>28477749
I love it when wrenchlets expose themselves.

>>28480111
Oh god no.

To be honest, I think I'd be happy with anything C7 and up, but with all the options. If I got to have two Corvettes though I'd get my second one as anything C4 generation or up, C3 if it's one of the post-Malaise era ones.

Kek just repeating tiktok/reddit buzzwords and expressions about certain cars
go back

>>28479777
>it's so SOULLESS how a big company switched from literally the most common and easy-to-design-for layout to something that requires a lot more engineering and creativity to build
You people don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.

>>28477311 (OP)
I want the CTS-V wagon. It's got the Corvette guts so honorary Corvette.

>>28480291
Take the badges off from a red C8 and ask normies on the street what car it is, you'll never guess what most of them will say.
Also I'm an old fart hermit, I don't honestly even know what tik tok really is, so you go back there instead, clearly you know what they're talking about there.

>>28480314
The normies would think it's an even more exotic car than it is? Wow cool, you sold me on it.

>>28480111
Taste is subjective and I don't expect you to like what I like. Simple as that. The new Corvette does not trip my trigger. I would prefer a C7 Z06 over any C8, but there are Corvettes I'd prefer over a C7 Z06 for reasons besides speed.

>>28477311 (OP)
The one from my gran autismo videogames.

>>28481310
yuck
they don't even come in automatic

>>28479710
unbelievable how much seethe this car yields here

>>28481713
Auto is superior to manual and it makes manual fags seethe. They use to boast about how manual was faster and they can't cope with manual being slower
