A C8 (yes, C8) ZR1 will debut in just a few years and it will be a rear mid engine.

Apparently they will have several years of overlapping C8 ZR1 before a full lineup of C8.

I wonder if all of the C8s will be mid engine or is it just the ZR1?

Apparently all of them. But for the first time there will be two generations thoroughly overlpaping. There will be the flagship C8 first (also unique AFIK) alongside the C7(s). Then the other C8s. Probably a smart way overall. If they nail a rear mid engine for around $150k, they will have something quite special.

It sorta looks like a Ferrari 430/458.

That's just pure imagination from C&D. Who knows what the final will be. But <= $150k will be a solid $100k less than a Ferrari (which you can't even buy directly unless you're in the club so to speak.)

Excellent, if I start saving now I can probably afford the sales tax.

Got to have a dream.

I'll settle for not catching anything as my dream.
