Chevrolet shocked everyone at the C8 Convertible reveal Wednesday night by bringing out the all-new C8.R for a surprise sneak peek.
No details were given but several neat features were out in plain sight. We are hoping to see some of these upgrades trickle down from the racing version to future road-legal models.

Back in July, the 2020 Corvette Stingray Coupe was revealed and among its attributes was the view of the well-dressed LT2 that resides under glass behind the seats, as well as a breath-taking starting price of $59,995!

The 2020 Corvette Stingray Reveal was a pretty cool event as car reveals go. Held on the evening of October 2nd in the Rocket Garden at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor’s Complex, we were reminded that of the Chevrolet commercial that America is still building rockets.
Introduced under the stars and surrounded by the legacy of America’s space program, the 2020 Corvette Stingray Convertible and the Corvette Racing C8.R were introduced to the world.
2020 Stingray convertible offers the same storage as coupe, even with the top down
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Open-air driving has always been a part of the Chevrolet Corvette’s heritage. In fact, when the Corvette debuted in 1953, it was available only as a convertible. The 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible builds off that heritage as the first hardtop and mid-engine convertible in Corvette history.

In our opinion, there’s no better place to “launch” a new Corvette than the Kennedy Space Center on Central Florida’s East Coast.
That’s where we’ll be Wednesday evening as the next-generation 2020 Corvette Stingray Convertible drops its top for the first time in public.
The press event tonight begins at 7:30 pm ET and is expected to run 45 minutes.

Is this some wishful thinking?
Having some fun with the 2020 Corvette Stingray, the guys over at @CarLifestyle on Instagram created this image of a Torch Red Z51 Coupe catching some air on a dirt road.
It certainly caught my attention when it popped up in my feed today and it probably gave the members of the Corvette Team a bit of panic before realizing its a photoshop.

Here’s another staff member from Road & Track who shared a video of the 2020 Corvette Stingray on social media. This time its Jason Cammisa who has his camera pointed at the basic speedometer display as he goes 0-100 mph from a standing start. Because of the media embargo, he can’t share performance times or his driving impressions of the car.

The 2020 Corvette Stingray spent last week in the hands of the Road & Track editorial staff as the next-generation Corvette was one of the 11 contenders being tested for this year’s Performance Car of the Year Award. The judging is done and the winner will be announced in the November 2019 issue.
The Chevrolet Corvette was born as a convertible and the drop-top models were the most popular for the first 17 years of the Corvette’s formative years. It wasn’t until the third generation and specifically the 1969 model year that a Corvette Coupe would outsell the Convertible models, and they would do so until the Convertible’s demise in 1975.
