Possible engine inlet air and/or brake cooling.

Actually looks like the Tesla Olympus concept car from 2019:

I don’t see that coming in a convertible or T-top configuration.

Yep. I had ‘66 327/300. Same color (Milano Maroon), w/Buckskin interior and tan top. Loved that car.

It has both large front and rear air scoops. Why?

Brake cooling with more downforce.

Why need to design in England? Shoulda’ designed it somewhere more friendly to us.

Corvettes used to be about 50 percent more than a Impala. The pricing has gotten way out of hand. I would prefer a v6 or v8 Miata with a clutch and a convertible. Having a car that goes 200 mph in 5 seconds with an automatic and a seating position like a dentists chair is useless for me and many others. GM could never build a nimble car.

HALF the streets & roads in the USA cannot be traversed with ZERO clearance-—To say nothing about home driveways——

probably more. So probably not so great as a daily driver.

“Just want a v8, 2 seats and a clutch. All I ask.”

What are you driving now?
