The eighth-generation Corvette returned last year with a new, mid-mounted, naturally aspirated 6.2-litre V8 engine. This one produces up to 495 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque via an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. Sadly, the manual gearbox is nowhere in sight. A magnetically controlled suspension is available as a standalone option, not to mention wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration for 2021. New colours and racing stripes can be had, too.
