    My only concern would me the plastics

    been made available in the recent past.

    Re: New mid engine Corvette. July 18th.

    As I've looked at a few other vids, the car is growing on me a bit. I'd probably be correct to say there are many lesser vehicles out there for a lot more money.

    In some vids, it looks like the side marker lamps on the fender wheel wells are gone, but in another vid I see they were retained. Is it important?

    Probably not to me it isn't, as at this point in life, I strongly doubt I'll ever be back in a Corvette.

    I’ll say that it’s kind of important, if OEMs
    want to be law-abiding corporate citizens.

    Per current Federal standards/laws...all vehicles
    sold in the USA—including imports—are required
    to have rear side-markers that are “Red”; and
    front side-markers that are “Yellow”.

    Conversely...domestic vehicles, that are exported,
    are required to meet the side-markers’ standards
    of the Country in which they are sold—no matter
    their color.

    The car is stunning in every way. I can't wait for the higher end versions of the car down the road.

    Re: New mid engine Corvette. July 18th.

    I guess I just don't understand why your halo car has the look of an outgoing, 2nd failed attempt at a pony car as well as an SUV. I think a pair of recessed ROUND tailights with a bold, LED look would've been really cool but yet you didn't hear or bother to listen to the complaints of the C7. I wish I could find one thing to point to on this car that I like but I just can't, that rearend is a DIASTER!
