Hello everyone, what's your thoughts on the high wings for the Stingrays? I'm thinking about adding a high wing to my 2024 Stingray order. Does it take away from the classy look?
I echo what Tadda said. However I think it takes away from the classy exotic look of the C8 if you want my opinion. If it is a track car then by all means add the downforce.
Tons of threads on here about this with strong opinions on both sides. I have the high wing and love the look, but, as others noted, it's all about you, not us.
Personally I think they look ridiculous and brake up the fine lines of the C8's sleek body design, but it matters nothing what I think regarding your C8. If you like it, get it.

Get the high wing. Mine was on constraint so I bought over the counter and the dealer installed it. You can always add it on later if you're not sure. Visibility out the rear is fine on a coupe with the wing.. Plenty of pics on this forum.

This was my thinking early on until I added one and I really love the aggressive look now. My soon to be built 2024 will get one also. It honestly changes the whole look of the car.
Why does matter what others think? Get what you like!
Why does (it) matter that you think they should get what they like? Most the posts on here are what other people think. Are you not implying you posts don't matter?

It’s a personal decision. I like the way the high wing look from the rear. I think it looks horrendous from the side and from the front angles. Ultimately, I still ordered my car with the high wing, but soon after it came in, decided to remove it and replace it with the low wing. It looked too big and gaudy. To me the low wing looks more classy and exotic. Overall, I prefer this look better.
Personally, I prefer the Z-06 high wing over the Stingray optional wing. I have a Z-51 with the OEM Z-51 wing and it looks Ok, but it would like to go to the Z-06 wing in the future.
Yes, it does change the the whole look of the car, that's my problem with it. I prefer the look of the Z51 spoiler as it's not to much and not too little at least to my eye.

Everyone should do what they want and like. I went with the low-profile wing.
But since you asked, the reason why I personally wouldn't go with the high-wing is because:
1) Unattractive
2) Blocks rear view
3) Obstructs reach into trunk
4) I'm not 16 years old anymore
