Disgusting FoRd MuRsTaAnG cultist cop pulls over amazing new C8

But really, the entire Ford fleet sans the GT is pretty much susceptible to being unmarked/undercover. I remember seeing a group meet at a gas station. I first thought, "whoa that group of people all have bad taste in cars", but then I realized they're all cops.

Not too many sports cars on the list but Corvette is #2 but #1 as a sports car.

The mustang is a few spots lower but is the #2 car on the list.

It seems many owners aspire to have a new and old vette in their garages. It could even just be a matter of a C5 and then-new C7.

The elusive two-Corvette garage. I mean I'm sure there's many Z owner equivalents, as well as for for other namesakes.

And well, technically, something like the C5 ZO6 is actually still a pretty fast car. Might even be faster than a 370z in every which way. Just have to bear the eyesore interior.

Just put the order in for my C8. 1LT with Z51 and a couple little extras. Only 66k total which is cheaper than my C7 z06 and doesn't have traction problems like my Z06. Now the long wait. That being said deposit is refundable in case by some miracle the C8 or Supra get an announcement that a manual is coming.

The C8 is getting line lock, like the camaro 6's & I think the C7 did have launch control!!

Couldn't be less interested in that feature, really.
But I guess if it floats somebody's boat, why not.

So, does that mean it has an electronic LSD, or no LSD, or those options are mutually exclusive?

We have Elsd. The feature is meant for dragsters. Or track junkies looking for grip on inception of a race. I would need that feature.

Very fresh... I think this is going to be the real exotic looking one between the coupe and this spyder.

Ain't nobody getting anything until the strike is over. Now there is talk that GM will close plants after the strike and move things to Mexico.
