Who's getting a new 2020 C8 Vette?
I have my pre-order in for the first round delivery. I'm really hyped about the car!

I am thinking about it to. Variety is the spice of life. ;-/

I'm waiting for the inevitable bugs to get worked out, and perhaps upgrades?

I would imagine that the Z06 will be introduced in a year or two, same as the C6 & C7. The reports are that it'll be a smaller displacement twin turbo 4 cammer. Also, it's said to deliver 750+ horsepower. It'll be too rich for my (retired) blood, so... I'll be happy to have one of the first NA C8s with hopefully minimal bugs. Z51 will be a must. FWIW, any Cobra owner knows and is used to "bugs"...

Here's my take on the ZR1 / Zora, guys. Wide body and all about moving more air for cooling, intake and aero.

Slightly reworked with a side by side comparison to a base Stingray

My dealership did some "order crunching" using their time stamped online pre-orders and I slipped back a bit. I went from #15 to #24. They have a current 75 unit allocation with 19 units being delivered the first round in Jan/Feb. My current placement means I'll get mine in the March/April time frame. That actually works for me due to me being out of state from November to May.
My anticipated order will be the Sebring Orange with the Z51 package. Now I need to sell my C6 Z06.

It's the first Corvette re-design I've been excited about since the C5.
I'll have to see one in person, and sit in it before I decide if it's worth unloading my toy-box full of classics for (probably won't be, but never say never)

Just as I get all the bugs worked out of my 01-C5Z this has to happen. Think 70 is too old? Naaaaa...

And another with the requested active rear wing and a couple of additional aero pieces.

No manual, just a DCT 8 speed.
Here's the one I have on order, courtesy of GM's visualizer.
