“We refuse to sell EVs and now we're not being given EVs to sell!" Gee. Wonder what happened.

Scout is a dumb name - ok sure Beavis

I’m convinced the only people who say “Well X dealers are actually good” are just the suckers falling for the dealer’s bullshit. 

“Why would the best, most effective value proposition to distribute vehicles to customers not be your first choice?” Devlin asked Auto News. “And why would you reject an existing distribution and sales system that already exists?”

I thought most of the articles I read about dealerships and electric vehicles was that they hated selling them, to the point they were sabotaging their own electric car sales. Now they’re mad that they’re being cut out of the process they cratered.  

That’s Rig Stig

Every time a new Corvette comes out someone has to point out that it will be sold to old men who will put less than 2000 miles per year on it.

Well… who do you think typically has the disposable income for an expensive car like that?

I can’t imagine not buying a fantastic, bang for your buck, sports car just because of stereotypes.

More than you can afford, pal.

More than you can afford pal, ZR-1.

“More than you can afford pal. A Corvette in 2025.”

Right - the vette is not a sports car. More like an ultra hi-po GT. Want to see sports cars, kids? Look at the “big” Austin Healys of the late 50's to late ‘60s, or the Porsche 356 and early air -cooled 911's. Even the early Triumph TR6 and Miata. Light, tossable, and more fun than any of todays monster rockets.

Hang the fuck on. When the hell did 3600+ pounds become “relatively light-weight”? My 2004 GTO, considered a pig, was 3750lbs. My 2011 335i xDrive boring ass sedan probably weighs about the same as the convertible. I must’ve zoned out on the weight of modern sports cars over the last few year but all this does is…

As long as they keep a base model attainable I feel like they can grow the top end as much as they want.  If anything the Z06 and ZR1 help keep Corvette as a whole more affordable.

I hate to say it, but $100k is the new $75k. Cars generally have gotten more expensive across the board, especially performance cars. I think a better way to look at Corvette prices is to compare them to their competitors of the time. For example:

While it is arguably awesome, I feel like the C8 has done away with what a Corvette was supposed to be. I know the base C8 is like $70k, but the fact that the Zo6, E-Ray and now the ZR1 are all over $100k and the ZR-1 will probably be over $150k, just seems anti-corvette to me.

Same. My neighbor has a Lyric and it’s pretty damn cool.. I’ve been jealous since the day he brought it home. 

Okay, but one of them is real.
