Footage of Saturn V and other space shots, since we're at the fiftieth anniversary of Apollo 11.

Now, two real astronauts talking.

A "jet fighter for the road." Wasn't the C4 "an F16 for the freeway."

Once again, the engine compartment is being styled, something else that hearkens back to the early C4.

Tadge is on stage.

It looks like the C8 has at least a decent amount of luggage space—both front and rear.

A front lift system can lift the nose up to two inches.

… and the engine is an LT2.

495 bhp/470 lb-ft of torque. Still 6.2 liters.

Eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.

0-60 time under 3.0 seconds.

Especially if you buy the Corvette custom luggage package built to fit.

0-60 in under 3 sec. That means when driving around Homestead I can get from 0-35 in about 2. 8 speeds of which I would probably only use 3 at most. Unless of course you can get to some open road. Now that's where the Corvette will shine.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if the forthcoming higher performance versions offer a manual. That said, the attach rates for the manual have been dropping every year.
