With the new C8, they went more towards a European and exotic car personality. Not everyone is going to be happy, but it would be nice to have the front-engine and manual transmission like they used to and then this Euro-style one alongside it (as you and your friend mentioned).
We can't have it all in life, as we know. Grateful for what we have in front of us, though. The sports car game is getting more costly and limited, though. Electric and hybrid tech may or may not be helping alongside.
