No idea what year the Corvette is, they just struck me as sort of cousins.

The reborn NSX is a looker! I always feel like the modern Corvette is an example of "Design by Committee."

The NSX brake calipers being misaligned would make me crazy.

The Corvette C 8 was introduced for the model year 2020. It was targeted directly at the NSX and other exotic "super cars." It is considered a stunning success as the car that set the limits for high performance. Several manufacturers like the challenge Corvette's C 8 has made, it makes their vehicle better. What those manufacturers do not like is the price, Corvette is the first "Hundred Grand Supercar!" Most super cars are priced well above the $250.000.00 price range. Chevrolet first built the C 7 Corvette. That car laid the ground work for the C 8, all Chevy did was move the driver's position. The engine, suspension, and handling were perfected first in the C 7. All those features transferred directly to the C 8. . Other than driver's position the biggest new feature offered with the C 8 will be the addition of the electric motors that will drive the front wheels in the E-Ray. The original NSX was Honda's attempt at a super car, and it was outstanding. It was far ahead of it's time. Other cars caught up to it. Now, the world is responding to Corvette. Others are trying to catch up to it. They will, and the race will continue. Speed is simply speed, but getting to it is another matter. My top speed, Mach 1 was attained in 1971. No automobile is ever going to match that! Above 200 mph things begin to take on a new perspective. Smart money says The Corvette can out-perform the NSX, for now.

The 'Vette is beautiful.

It could be my age (75) but I prefer the more subtle NSX. The Corvette is just tries too hard. Too many angles and vents, the shiny black fairing around the exhaust pipes, as a matter of fact that whole shiny black addition looks goofy to me. It seems to me that GM let too many engineers have a hand in it's design. There's just too much going on. I know that it ranks way up there in "bang for the buck" and it's a phenomenal performing car, I've read all about it. You don't see Porsches or Ferrari's "over ornamented" like this. It's just not for me. I'd take the NSX any day. It might not be as fast as the Vette, but (to me) it's a much more appealing auto. I don't like the wheels on the Vette either or the spoiler for that matter. I guess what I'm getting at is that I don't care for new Corvettes. I think I just came to that conclusion. Now, for all you Corvette owners that I've alienated, my weekend toy is a Miata. So now, you can let me have it.

Thanks Papa. I have wanted one since 1957. I almost bought a 1971 but I was going back to school. I finally got mine in 2005. The mid 1970s and early 1980s were not the best years performance wise, but still Corvettes.

I'm 75 too. I was never a big Corvette fan until the C7 came out in 2014. I ordered one in November 2013 and took delivery in late July 2014. If I'm going to lay out $60K for a car, I'm not going to just buy something off the lot. I got exactly what I wanted: Z-51 package coup, 7 speed manual, performance exhaust, mid level Kalahari interior and in Lime Rock green. I went through Chevrolet's (3 day) Spring Mountain performance driving school in Pahrump, Nevada. . . twice, in the first 2 years I owned the car. Generally speaking, unless you are a professional race car driver, you will never fully appreciate the capabilities of this cars without some kind of specific training. The C7 really is a phenomenal sports car. IMHO "styling" can be overdone and this is the case with both the C8 and the NSX.
I wouldn't trade my 9 year old car for a new C8 or an NSX even up.
