What vehicles have tempted you away from your C7 lately?

The rear camera doesn't work on the C8 convertible when the top is down.
And look at all the areas below blocked off from view. When sitting in the C8 convertible, it feels more like a targa than a true convertible (like the C7 and LC).
I'm actually glad I didn't like the C8 driving experience. Makes me appreciate my C7 even more.

My 2017 Toyota 4Runner has tempted me recently. However it is because of double knee rereplacement. Yes you read that right, rereplacement. 9 years ago I had to have my knees replaced due to advanced arthritis. A year and a half ago I fell and eventually contracted a strep infection in both knees so they had to be removed and I had to go through extended antibiotic treatment to kill the infections. Two weeks ago I had the second prosthesis finally replaced and was given the go ahead to drive again this week. I can't yet get into the Z but it's close at hand. For now I am grateful for being alive after the treatments and being able to drive my 4Runner. It will do until I can climb in and out of the Vette.

I’ll keep my 2017 C7 A8! Bought it in Oct. of 2017 as a bank repo only owned for 5 months with 800 miles on it. Love the Car, can’t see paying $40.000 more for a C8.

I have a hotrod I built from scratch, but that’s a different thing all together. Sports/super car wise, it takes something around twice the price of my c7 gs to get me excited, and I don’t have a 150k car budget. For the money, I feel like I have one of the best performance cars ever made.

Nothing really makes me want to give up my C7 yet. Waiting on my friends C8 z06 and the awd C8 to see if that's going to tempt me. Honesty giving up the last manual car is difficult and I need some crazy torque to help make up for it. The Regular C8 wasn't enough for me.

AMG GT C Coupe could be nice. Just saw a picture of one.
Great specs.

I am a fairly new owner of my 2017 C7 Z06. (4 months) I have owned 1 other vette a 2008 C6 and too many mustangs to count lol . I have to say that I feel this car is at the top of the heap if you are a fan of American made performance vehicles. I think moving on to anything other than a newer Z06 would be a downgrade for me. Of course this is only my opinion but how I feel. I dont see myself selling this

I love these Z/28’s and would love to add one to my garage. This thing rips but could not justify the price due to the unknown vehicle history and details of the engine build. It’s a sweet ride tho.

Short answer, none. Only other car I'm looking at is upgrading from a Z51 3LT to a Grand Sport or Z06 for the right deal. No other car on the market IMO has the looks or performance for the same price as a C7. That's always been the Corvette attraction, high performance to it's European counterparts but instead of Champagne on a Ginger Ale budget lol.
