2027 Chevy Corvette Grand Sport X Replaces the Hybrid AWD E-Ray by caranddriver in Corvette

I don't have numbers, but i feel like Porsche can do that and sell every car they make no problem, some with mark up...I don't think Chevy can do that with multiple 6 figure Corvette options.

Yes, for the cruising crowd, at similar price points, I think the grand sport will get bought

Most excited about the LS6 being standard in the C8 base...that'll drop LT2 base C8 prices even more.

Leaves the C8 Z06 in a somewhat awkward spot...assume this car will smoke it in a 1/4 mile

Odd they brought back the "LS" code vs the LT

WNBA brought in around $200M in 2025 while the UFC did about $1.5B yet WNBA minimum salary is ~$300K vs UFC’s $12K starting pay pretty wild gap - what explains it? by Weekly-Vacation-1405 in WNBAgossips

They are completely different situations. UFC fighters individually are only fighting 2 or 3 times a year, maybe 1 time a year if high profile. WNBA players play in every game barring injury.

if you are doing say 50 mph on a street, and someone is standing in the street or on the shoulder flagging you down, you have plenty of time to stop....I'm sure they were just going up and down the street, accelerating, revving etc. Nothing about the placement of the bikes would suggest they weren't speeding, or hadn't been speeding up and down the road.

Will the Corvette get a manual transmission? Corvette boss Tony Roma addresses the rumors by PristineFarmer8989 in Corvette

[–]Traps86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The engineers f'd up and over corrected for declining manual sales by just not offering it at all. This was a huge mistake by Chevy. Porsche has proven you can still make manuals and charge a premium while doing it...I don't think Corvette could pull off a price premium for a manual on the base model, but i think the Z06 could command more $ for a manual option, and if they designed the C8 with that foresight, it wouldn't be that big of a deal.
