Already in its eight-generation, the Corvette is still one of the most synonymous American muscle cars out there. However, this is not just an evolutionary step for the muscle cars. It's actually a revolutionary step up for this gen Corvette: following several experimental CERV prototype vehicles, it is the first mid-engined Corvette since the model’s introduction in 1953, marking Chevy’s venture into the higher-end of the performance car market. It is powered by a new naturally aspirated 6.2 L V8 engine. It is rated at 490 horsepower and 465 lb-ft (630 Nm) of torque – an improvement of 40 horsepower and 10 lb-ft (14 Nm) over the outgoing
C7 Corvette Stingray.
To make matters even more interesting for the eight-generation Corvette, this is also the first one that comes without a manual transmission option in decades. The manual was dropped due to a lack of customer demand, though structural concerns were cited as well. The only other model years not offered with a manual transmission were the 1953–1954 C1 and the 1982 C3. In the Corvette C8, the engine is utilized in sync with an 8-speed dual-clutch automated transmission made by Tremec, which utilizes paddle shifters on the steering wheel.
Performance-wise, the C8 Corvette is a beast. The carmaker claims that the C8 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 2.9 seconds when equipped with the optional Z51 package. However, when Car and Driver tested it, they recorded a time of 2.8 seconds. Pretty damn fast, whatever you may say. In turn, this makes the Chevrolet Corvette C8 a perfect foundation for an aftermarket build.
For this owner, the Dark Knight theme dominates his build, creating one of the most menacing looking 'Vettes out there. The vehicle features a black exterior finish, chrome delete, but also, black brake calipers. These are hidden under a set of
Forgestar CF10 wheels, adorned with a
Gloss Black finish, perfecting the look. For those interested, the wheels are
sized 20x9.5 and 20x12 in the front and rear, respectively. The wheels are wrapped in
Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, giving plenty of traction for this high-powered American muscle car.
