Did y’all hear the flat plane on the new ZO6?? So badass. Can’t wait to buy a used one in 8 years haha
I tried to get on a Z06 wait list earlier this year at one of the largest Corvette dealers. There is already 600+ in line which puts the wait list out 3 to 4 years. So, I gave up.

I can't see people cross shopping the C8 and the Z. Two different driving styled vehicles and different performance benchmarks.

it seems the demand for the Z , ZO6 and Emira is out of control . Emira on 7/16 debut day the received 800 deposit in the UK alone , In US the demand is over with 1000 deposits. I'm sure the Z will be the same so GLWD to all

Do you have a source for these numbers?

I put my deposit in early on at large dealer. I'm expecting a second year car, but I don't mind the wait. Give me more time to appreciate the Z anyway :cool:.

All Z06's, at least two to three years out are already spoken for at this point anyway, and the car's not even open for ordering yet.

Same here, still an import guy at heart. Owned 6 Japanese cars before waking up one day, realized that I'm probably never going to own a MKIV Supra, R33 or R34, and for lack of choices I settled for a different twin turbo inline 6 that of course had to be German :(
That's why I went and got the Z4 I had....that car was amazing (when it ran right)

I see the C8 often here, sure has that exotic chiseled look and the awesome performance for the price. But….it’s just not for me, the C7 styling is so much more smooth and integrated.

Besides all that, these two are not going head to head, the new Z will run with the likes of Mustang GTs, Camaro SS 1LE, and others in the similar ballpark on pricing and performance.
This didn’t age well.

It did go up against those cars and failed miserably.
