Hate the wheels, hate the rear end. I think the ford gt looks better, and it looks like the zora would fit almost perfectly inside the ford gt body and chassis. The front end looks like a ferrari. I wouldn't buy it if it was 50k, except that it's a thousand horsepower. I don't car if it's mid engine or not. I think mid engine is the most brilliant move that Chevy has ever made... 50 years too late. We could've had a mid-engine car competing with lamborghini, ferrari, and porsche 50 years ago. But, now they finally go to mid-engine and the ford mach e suv can just about run with it as an electric car. But, as far as combustion engine cars go, which I would rather have over electric, I love the c8 that chevy made, right now. For me it's perfect just like it is. I miss the old round tail lights that corvettes always had when I was growing up, but the new ones do fit very well. For the same price, I would take the current c8 z06 over the zora. The zora is too george jetson for me. And so is that grand national. For me, the romance of the internal combustion engine, non space age looking cars, and drag racing are gradually drifting away, and faster than I like to see.
If you have $200-$250k it would sticker at then add another $100-$200k for mark up so think $400k. I'm getting a $150k Z06 but thats my limit, not that I wouldn't do it if I could easily afford it.
Huge huge Corvette purest and enthusiast here. I think your conceptualized version is unbelievable and so cool that I would definitely buy one if I had the money! I understand that some won't like it and that's true of anything that is risk-taking. My father and I have owned and restored about a dozen Corvettes from every generation and we would both be super excited if something like this came to reality!!
I love how the Corvette has progressed over the years. I still have my 1966 Vette Roadster with both tops, AC, and the base 327 CI engine. I am the original and only owner and would love to see Chevy make a 2025 Zora as you have made in this video. Beautiful design, and it looks fast and mean!
Short version, GM would be wise to maintain current/reasonable price levels for their offerings. I like your suggestions. My last Corvette 2019. You've clearly captured a vibrant design idea.
Sir, you have mad skills! I LOVED your rendering of a future Buick, and the Zora concept creation is just as aesthetic. Kudos! Good work! As a former XK150 owner, I have very particular tastes on design cues, though I don't possess one iota of the skill required to envision them. So impressed!
I wish I had a C8 😭 I’m really working hard to be able to buy my own one day. Hopefully soon. I remember reading about the Zara 10 years ago in a magazine. Can’t wait to see how it looks and everything!
@@friedfish4415 Exactly. I have no problem with GM making a supercar, but they should've started with a new model line and continue the legacy of the front engine Corvette. Not sure why it's hard for people to grasp that idea.
Corvette lover for my whole life. Back in the day , my uncle had an orange, 73 t top stingray. Love at first drive along. The new Vette is just the way it should be, conquering all that dare line up with it. You have a great platform here, keep the Chevy news coming. Thanks eh!
I love your rendering of what you think it should look like. 😉 The Zora, hey, I think it also would be great if they would design it it with rear end looking like the split window and the tail lights as well 😀!
That design is one of the best design look of any sport car I've ever seen for a sport car. I love the look of the car, the rims, the name, the color, and it for a Corvette. It's like wow!
Yes, I would buy one regardless of the Lamborghini, Ferrari, price & performance comparisons. Wish we had the roads here in Australia where we can have that exhilaration of power :)
You're on to something with that rendering, low, wide and aerodynamic with all that power, DANG!!!!! I'm one of those who wanted Chevy to make the Vette a mid-engine years ago (back in the 90's), the balance and weight (front/back) ratio on that vehicle is what it's all about.
I saw my first Corvette in August of 1964, it was a red convertible with a manual. Ever since then that is what I thought a Corvette should be. I have a 2016 Arctic White convertible with a 7 speed manual. Having said all that, I would by your rendering. You are correct, cars evolve and improve. My dream Corvette is a 1973 454, the dream still lives.
Your rendition is very good, it still retains the c8 dna 🧬 but brings forth the more exotic look of a over the top supercar, I especially like extremely low roof line and wide stance, the rear quarters have a somewhat look of what we see in other international exotics. I would like to see a 360 view of to get a better look of what it looks like from those different angles.
That design is extraordinary. On of the most beautiful designs I’ve ever seen. If asked to modify it, I would only tiny up the rear’s hips a bit. Just a little bit. Apart from that, I would change nothing. The look is masterfully developed. Bravo.
At the age of 15 in 1972, the Corvette became my dream car. When I saw the mid engine experimental cars from the '60s, I’ve been wishing for a mid engine Corvette ever since. I'm very happy GM finally did it, just wish it had been done much sooner. 👍
Great review. Yep, mid-engine was the way to go. From all the C8 reviews I've read, the C8 is so much better than every prior generation is every way. I would buy a C8 in any variant over any other exotic if I could afford one. Just LOVE the C8 corvette.
When I first saw the rendering I thought it was a sneak preview of a future Corvette! I said to myself, "I would buy that in a heartbeat!" I love the Zora name too! I was so disappointed to discover Chevy didn't create this impressive design. They should pay you for it and build it! I suspect this could become this best seller ever! Well done sir!
Brian, I personally love the new mid-engine Corvette and subsequent developments like the Z06, altho I'm not too sure about the eRay, it is growing on me. I was at my local dealer for the C8 launch event, and when I asked the GM about the ZR1 version, he told me of the Zora configuration. I was blown away. Yes, I'd buy and drive a Zora, if for no other reason it will be rather unique and a head turner. Can't help being a little ostentatious with something truly beautiful!
This rendition of the Zora looks so Badass. This would definitely be an eye-opener. Now, to match it up with customized and equally badass paint. Beautiful job.
I agree with you 100%. The Zora should be different from the other TRIM models. Would love to see that center console changed up too, I thought that would happen on the E ray maybe utilize glass
Very well thought out design with attention to the details of fluidity of the angles and it appears to be truly slippery as it travels through the air with ease. The aerodynamics are futuristic and I think you nailed it.
Magnificent! Would I buy one (Zora)? If I could, Yes. I think the mid-engine 'vette is the greatest and will just keep getting better. I likied the look of Zora's mid-engine concept car he was driving as well. He knew! 😉
My thoughts after seeing one of the first 53' corvette's drive up my neighbors driveway , I fell in love. I have wanted one but have not been able to afford one. That's ok. This new one is beautiful for sure. Would I buy a Zora, absolutely.
Love that Zora got his name on one Great man ! . I have 2 63 & 74 convertibles and every time i meet a girl kuz of it i say Thank you Zora They are a party on wheels prity much loved by everyone EXCEPT those who lost a girl from one....
Beautiful design! The front looks like Corvette, the rear quarter panel looks like a McLaren, but that's OK, I would love for the Zora to look just like your rendering!
100% yes .. Absolutely stunning rendering .. LOVE IT!!!! This with the Zora nameplate, 1000hp and under 250k retail would be a steal IMO .... I only wish i had the lack of personal responsiblity it took to remortgage my property to buy one .. lol
Yes, in fact, Zora did design the mid engine Corvette. I would love to see that tribute and the concept is amazing! I love it! I would most definitely buy one if I had the 💰
What a beauty! The looks of the current C8 just don’t do it for me. Doesn’t come close to Lambos or Ferraris. Your design, however, is drop dead gorgeous. A true dream car.
Looks just awesome, except the side inlets. If they were closer to the current Z06 I think it would look better. Nice job though. Maybe the next gen/refresh of the Vette will look close to this. That would be killer!
That is the most beautiful designed American car, I have seen. I’m a Ford guy, but I am also a tifoso , of any beautiful design, as well as , who doesn’t like power. Bravo, 🍻 well done. Corvette would be stupid , not to take this design, as you have done. The current best looking C8, is at best a 6 out of 10 . I love the performance numbers, but your design , I’d buy.
Have a C8 and I have fewer sunrises ahead of me than behind me and I love your concept version. If money weren’t an issue and I had time on my side I’d definitely consider it.
I have had four Corvettes through the years and I love what the car has evolved into. If the purest don't want progress they all need a blue flame 6 and no roll up windows, right?
I think their entree into the mid engine Prime work along with the body styling and interior is a most incredible work I've seen them do since their beginning. If I could afford something around the price point you're talking about I would certainly buy one
Back in the marine corps returning from my 1st year long deployment I got my first new to me 84’ corvette then traded up to a 94’. Since then I’ve been without one as I privately sold the 94’ to help finance my families house. Been missing it ever since, but back to your Question. If I could I’d so purchase that model but ONLY if they actually used the name as stated in your video…
Your design is an exotic and classier C8. Love it. Hope they share your design ethos. They know to build fast...add your design and it's the best in the world at any price. It will be $300k + and worth it.
To keep up and serve notice on the Italians IE Lamborghini and Ferrari the Corvette needed to evolve and hell yes I'd buy your version, 1000hp man I'd be driving that for days love the mid engine
Well, would you buy one? Don't forget to follow me on IG instagram.com/realbrianmello/
Front looks like 458i after facelift
as soon as i saw the thumbnail i instantly thought. oh thats a cool rendering of a new corvette.
Yeah
please send this to chevy design team, I need this car to happen the way you designed it
Hate the wheels, hate the rear end. I think the ford gt looks better, and it looks like the zora would fit almost perfectly inside the ford gt body and chassis. The front end looks like a ferrari.

That design is sick as hell
Yes it is!
🔥 🔥 🔥
It's okay, give it a hyper doseand it will be better.
Your comment is most comments lol.
Which is my exact comment lol.
Yes
Wow I’m impressed! That’s exactly what it should look like that’s the perfect design taking the C8 to HyperCar level!!
💯👌
Wait until you see the Tesla roadster 2
That rendering looks absolutely amazing! I'd definitely buy one if it looks anything close to that.
Would I buy. One…. Want it yes. Price point will always be the deciding factor.
If you have $200-$250k it would sticker at then add another $100-$200k for mark up so think $400k. I'm getting a $150k Z06 but thats my limit, not that I wouldn't do it if I could easily afford it.
I absolutely love your rendering, it”s the best I’ve ever seen so far. I would definitely buy one. I would love to see the back.
I love the idea of a ZORA CORVETTE. YES, I will absolutely consider buying one when it’s available For Sale!
Can I move in with you? I promise to drive it like a Ford Escort.
Like a mk1 rs2000 in a rally stage?

Then obviously you're not what you claim you are.
I think your Zora design looks fantastic and yes I would buy one. I also think the Zora name should be used.
That’s an absolutely stunning rendering. Chevrolet would be quite proud. If the final version look anything like this.
Brian ... you nailed it. The cabin/glass/roof treatment borrows nicely from the Jesko, with the remainder of the design flowing at a hypercar level!
I love how the Corvette has progressed over the years. I still have my 1966 Vette Roadster with both tops, AC, and the base 327 CI engine. I am the original and only owner and would love to see Chevy make a 2025 Zora as you have made in this video. Beautiful design, and it looks fast and mean!

I don't possess one iota of the skill required to envision them. So impressed!
As an owner of a C8 I love the mid- engine. AND I love this concept car. I WOULD BUY ONE.
PJR
I absolutely love that design! Great job! As a C8 Z06 owner, I would absolutely buy a Zora with 1000HP!
I wish I had a C8 😭 I’m really working hard to be able to buy my own one day. Hopefully soon. I remember reading about the Zara 10 years ago in a magazine. Can’t wait to see how it looks and everything!
This car will be destroyed by the Tesla roadster 2.
The concept is gorgeous, very exzotic looking. The mid engine Corvette was a brilliant move by GM.
Its should be a separate car with the corvette remaining a front mounted v8
@@friedfish4415 Exactly. I have no problem with GM making a supercar, but they should've started with a new model line and continue the legacy of the front engine Corvette. Not sure why it's hard for people to grasp that idea.
@Tom datoolman
Hell yeah 😍👌

One could only hope for it to look like that exactly! Seriously I love the rendering you came up with!
Shockingly amazing rendering. I’ll buy one in a heart beat
Im still waiting on my Z06, but I would definitely buy one. Excellent rendering as well.
As a corvette owner... I highly approve of this design. Amazing job
I love your rendering of what you think it should look like. 😉 The Zora, hey, I think it also would be great if they would design it it with rear end looking like the split window and the tail lights as well 😀!
I agree. The split window is my favourite Corvette design to date. I would have referenced that instead of the Koenigseigg.

That design is one of the best design look of any sport car I've ever seen for a sport car. I love the look of the car, the rims, the name, the color, and it for a Corvette. It's like wow!
Looks sexy... I would find a place to garage it. Even if that means building a garage to store it when not ripping up the pavement.
You can leave it in my garage rent free. Just leave the keys so I can crank it and keep the battery charged.
Been a Corvette fan for 40+ years & i could not be happier with the mid-engine. well done Chevy
Yes, I would buy one regardless of the Lamborghini, Ferrari, price & performance comparisons. Wish we had the roads here in Australia where we can have that exhilaration of power :)
We do just make sure there is no fun shoppers with radars 🤣😂🤣😂
Absolutely beautiful, I would buy one in a heartbeat. Still waiting for my Z06.
Definitely would buy 1. Love the whole Vette lineup. Great render also 👍.

Looks good from that angle. Any pics of it from other angles? Looks like it needs a wing too..
The rendering is Perfect!
You hit every single one of your marks. It looks incredible!
Your design is an exotic and classier C8. Love it. Hope they share your design ethos. They know to build fast...add your design and it's the best in the world at any price. It will be $300k + and worth it.
