[QUOTE="ddgermann, post: 128344, member: 3537"] 150+ HP from 650 to 800+ is not a little more power. I doubt we will see it in the inaugural year, but the rumors have a hybrid version with electric front wheel assist is being designed making the C8 an AWD Mid engine ultra high performance supercar. Groundbreaking in North American sports cars. This type of technology is only seen on high end English and Euro sports cars. Consider the $1.3 million price of the 918 Porsche that has this electric FWD assist tech compared to the likely 200-250Kish priced C8 Corvette that has the same performance. Ferrari and McLaren are 2 more super players with the tech at an even higher price. The word hybrid has been kicked around for years trying to make us feel guilty for driving these HP sports cars....this shuts that crap down. It will be interesting to see what this does to the power to weight ratio but it's pretty exciting stuff for a Corvette enthusiast....well for sure it is for this one. I would not buy one to say "I own a C8". I would buy one because I want the supercar tech and the power in a price I can afford. Not much chance of me buying a 918 and staying married. lol Plus.... the amazing feeling of driving an AWD Corvette with this power and luxury. So that's why I and I think a few more of us here are excited about the C8. [/QUOTE]
