“Yeah, well the 2020 Shelby 760 hp Mustang is using a ‘new’ and ‘unusual’ transmission, because the Tremec tranny everyone had been using is too weak for this much torque. “
They are using it for the high-end performance it provides.
Already ordered my 2020 C-8 Corvette Stingray.
Final Pricing isn’t out until the 15th but it looks like it will be about $69,500 MSRP with the Z51 and 2LT Packages added. Base pricing is said to be $58,900 or $59,900. Base MSRP on my 2014 C-7 Corvette was $53,900 if I recall.
I hear that people who ordered the new Toyota Supra, nothing but a rebadged BMW Z4, are having second thoughts since the C-8 was announced. I was expecting something that looked like their great looking Concept Car version, but it ended up being something else.
It was akin to expecting Melania Trump for Dinner and Mochelle “big Mike” Obama showing up instead.
