Was the C7 launch hype similar to the C8?

[QUOTE="ddgermann, post: 213953, member: 3537"] The hype is pretty much the same. The scramble for allocations and price gouging over MSRP were all the same however far more pronounced with the Z06 in 15 and even worse on the ZR1 in 19. I was driving a 13 Z06 that I was happy with when I saw the 15 Z06... damn. I waited and bought a used one after the hype died down. All the covid and other drama has certainly made it much more challenging to get the C8 and we see it clearly on here compared to the C7. I expect the C8 Z06 and up releases will generate as much if not more craziness than the C7 just because of the excellent performance of the base model C8 compared to the C7 and other cars that are supposed to be out punching the Corvette and don't. This car is a serious performance car that delivers. Huge hit for the money. If it wasn't for the transmission I would be spinning waiting for the Z06 but as I want to row an old fashioned manual my blood pressure is under control. [/QUOTE]
