Featured First Bath: Up Close Look at Our First 2020 Corvette

[EJChevy]

The dealership is now closed and our first 2020 Corvette is getting it's first hand wash by yours truly so it can sit in our showroom until the customer is ready to take delivery. I'll be posting some close up photos and my comments as I go through it.

Hate the license plate bracket...

It looks like a removable panel sits on the bottom of the frunk. It is actually fixed in place and won't budge.

Awesome car. Question: The space/vent at the bottom of the rear window that allows the heat to escape from the engine is open. Did water get into the engine bay when you cleaned the car? Do you have to wash from the top down so water doesn't flow in? Thanks for the pics.

I thought about that after I finished cleaning up the engine bay....

I'll be honest, water went in there like a waterfall. There was absolutely no avoiding it.

I was talking to someone today who owns an Audi R8. Apparently nearly all mid-engine cars have vents in the rear hatch like this. Lots of heat back there when driving fast.
