Wax will be obsolete. It will be a nano-based, polymer synthetic, polycentric, dual poly, tri-poly coating derived from CBD oil heated to a consistency of lard for easy spreadability. Will not harm black trim.

Turtle wax is OK. 3 years from now though waxes will be so much better than they are today!

The C9 will get shelved with the Camaro and they will both be killed off for a while.

XPEL Ultimate and 2 coats of CQuartz Professional on the whole car. Did it for the first time on my 2017 GT350R. A world of protection with basically zero change in appearance (only up close looking at nooks and crannies). The CQuartz makes it shine like a marble, and washings are a breeze. Can’t believe I didn’t do that to my other cars. Only thing I’d do differently is apply something to the windshield.

Camaro yes, this has been discussed by Chevy and I heard it will happen. Corvette...never. Corvette has been a cash cow for Chevy.

I think some of you are trying to turn a purely sarcastic thread into a serious thread lol.

Did any of you guys actually read the OPs opening thread.

hahahaha....you've noticed that too. Some of the threads are just as stupid as the ones that were posted when the C7 first came out. I shake my head and have to wonder if some of the thread starters are not kids the night before Christmas.

why would you worry about wax? You are just going to go through the automatic car wash..... and go for the super Jet Hot Poly Seal Teflon Ceramic Deflect-o Shield additive..... and drive away real fast to blow off all the water beads.... no one uses wax anymore......thats so 90's

and .....in 3 years... you'll never have to change your oil ....or actually drive the car....and it will be a C11..as Corvette is going to change platforms every year from now on...

LOL - these posts are f-ing asinine.

How about the 100 mile oil change and subsequent Blackstone analysis debate that spans 15+ pages?
