One thing we like about this concept is Foose kept the outline of the C8 the same meaning, GM could have built the car. It seems that Foose agrees with us on this topic, too, as he integrates features of past Corvettes into his rendering. So why didn’t Chevrolet use the same recipe for the C8? We don’t know, but we think they should have.

While the redesigned Camaro came out of the gate running in 2010, sales have dwindled as the company abandoned the design by adding new elements that have had enthusiasts scratching their heads. These cars have been successful, especially for Mopar and Ford. Chevrolet, Ford, and Mopar all paid homage to their classic lineup with vintage elements incorporated throughout. If it’s one thing that saved the pony cars over the last ten years, it was the design. Lucky for us, Foose gives us a rendering of how the car might have looked if previous Corvette elements were introduced into the latest Corvette. Instead of just building a mid-engine car, Foose wonders why Chevrolet didn’t incorporate some of the car’s previous elements into the design, and we’re wondering the same thing. No matter how you feel about Foose’s style, you have to agree that his thought process on the redesign of the C8 is on the money. However, Foose is always messing with cars and changing things, and like any artist, everyone’s a critic. And we have to admit we love his thought process behind the redesign of this iconic sports car.įoose states that he’s not sure if he likes GM’s latest version of the Corvette yet, and if the rendering god doesn’t know by now, we’re guessing that he doesn’t.

In this video by Hagerty, Foose shows us what he would have done if he were on the C8 Corvette design team.
