Glad it's not just me.
I don't like the GV70 in pictures, but I've seen a couple on the road and they look amazing. They look like nothing else on the road and have a real presence that's hard to describe. Not a vehicle to drive if you want to blend in with traffic.
I've tried really hard to like the C8, and it just isn't working. I'm not a huge Vette fan and prior to the C7 never paid much attention to them except when watching IMSA or WEC races. The C7 really caught my eye, and I still like the look of a C7 GS or Z06. The C8...not so much. The back end to me looks like they put a Camero in a crusher and squashed it. The front end is just a mess of lines and creases. The side view is the best angle to me, but the front end is too blunt. I understand they have to meet pedestrian crash standards, but there has to be a better design. Don't even get me started on their choice of wheel designs and the interior... Color has a lot to do with how I feel about the car. At Cars and Coffee this past weekend there were 3~4 C8's. The silver and dark blue ones looked the best to me, while a red one looked pretty terrible.

By the way, not trying to minimize or disagree with your opinion. I can understand why you might not like it. But it did also get quite a bit of praise for nailing the ride quality but don’t remember hearing much about handling but it’s an SUV. Decent engine too.
Yeah definitely a case of different strokes for different folks. The front AND the rear are why i don’t like it. The exhaust pipe set up is hideous.
All those things you mentioned would be important after styling. I figure out what looks good to me and then look at the other factors.
