Maybe as a "Hot Wheel"...or a Jada, but that's about it.

Way back in 2016 this pic represents what the 2020 C8 was going to look like. For me it looks a hell of a lot better than the production C8!

@carsman1958 I agree but the pedestrian injestion tunnel is a nice touch. Would like to have seen a rear view of how they were exhausted

I like Corvettes and Corvette Stingrays. My brothers have had (or have) 1:1 Corvettes.

The best I have done are replicas so far, but .......... I like Corvettes !

@chris Thanks Chris. I'm guessing the driver couldn't see what he had run over based on the exhaust.

Correct Bob!    This is NOT a Tex Avery "Cars of Tomorrow"  cartoon.    If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you're too young!  😏 😏

Not quite.  There are no plans to put this Hyper Vette into production, but it was designed in the UK.  Other GM design centers around the world are also drafting up Hyper Vette projects.
