In that case... Audi E-Tron S?

Or Tesla Model Y Performance?

I would go for the Audi.
 
Guess I'm going with the crowd on this one. The C7 is the last of a long line of FR V8 Corvettes.
 
Theoretically, I should be going with the C8 since it's mid-engined and much faster, but I choose the C7, simply because it has much more cohesive exterior styling.
 
C7.

I have seen too many USA YouTube videos of C7's drag racing.

Merica

Plus if i remember correct GT5 or GT6 had a big unveiling of this car. From spy car to normal.
 
That old thing, whatever it is called.

'57 Chevrolet Bel Air with the Chevy "V" removed from the hood.

The '58 had more pronounced rear fender fins, and they got rid of the hood ornaments. Some models only had a passenger side hood chrome piece.

This is the time period when car manufacturers would experiment with fender fins and eccentric body and headlight housings. The period of the iconic 20 foot finned land yachts :lol:

That Bel Air would go on to become this by 1960:

If anything, the ‘58 had more subtle and “toned down” fins compared to the ‘57. The fins on the ‘59 were much more wild.

Well I guess more "pronounced" wasn't the right term. The fins on the 58 protruded more than the 57. The 57 had straight fins that are more subtle, IMO, than the rose-like protrusion on the 58.



But we could talk about the little intricacies in the Bel Air lineup for weeks :lol:
