The C8 Corvette is one of the most important new cars of this year, for obvious reasons: the engine is now in the middle, the manual gearbox is gone, and folks are making apples-to-apples comparisons with Porsche and Ferrari. When I drove a very early build car on track for Road & Track's PCOTY, it was excellent at racetracks, but the gearbox programming left a lot to be desired in normal driving situations. Additionally, the fit and finish of that early car was beyond reproach. I wanted to see how GM addressed both the gearbox tune and the build quality for customer-built vehicles.

Shoutout to TST viewer Brian K for letting me have a go in his C8!
