Auto Motor Und Sport C8 Chevrolet Corvette Fast Lap test

[Sticky]

It is good to see the C8 Chevrolet Corvette being tested by those outside the USA. In this case, the Germans over at Auto Motor Und Sport. They tend to favor German cars and often in their hands it is the German vehicles that put up the best numbers for whatever reason.

How does the C8 Corvette do? Not that well.

It's behind a Porsche 718 Cayman GT4. Plus a Ferrari 430 Scuderia. BoostAddict finds that hard to believe:

2019 Aston Martin vantage does have the Mercedes m177 4.0v8tt engine but it’s only got 500hp same as the c8 and the Aston weighs more than the c8. Plus the c8 is mid engine…. No other car on the list even gets close to 60k$ though….

Since tuned cars are included, it would be nice to see where a 700-800hp c8 would land….I imagine it would dominate.

I find it VERY hard to believe the Aston Martin is quicker around the track.
