So were comparing a 500k super car to a 60k waxer car now?

Re: ...And it's got a much better ass...
Are any of you seriously making the case that styling in either instance is a function of price?

Yes. There are reasons a much more mass produced vehicle would have different styling.

I thank you for the simple answer.

Re: ...And it's got a much better ass...
I'm actually going to give a serious answer here
I am not a huge fan of the C8 rear end. It might be the part of the car I like the least. Kind of seems jumbled and doesn't flow as good with the rest of the car as I had hoped. That said, I'd like to see it more "live" first to get a better perspective of it and see if it grows on me. I did not like the C7 when it came out either but it has definitely grown on me.
The Ford GT just looks over designed to me. I know it is functional blah blah but compare it to let's say the Koenigsegg Agera RS read end it definitely looks over the top to me. Like a 5 year old drew it.

I would not have expected the best, most on-point answer yet from you.
Color me surprised.
I'm a Ford guy, or I wouldn't have started the thread.

The GT rear looks like I would expect a Ford supercar to look, and the C8 rear looks exactly like I would expect it to look as well. Not just like the C7, but close enough to still say "Corvette". The Agera RS though...

Thats quite the back handed compliment.
Back to my point.
Kind of want to just poke it in the eyes.

Frankly, I think they're all a bit over overwrought, even while they're stylistically striking.
I'm sure it's just me, but of those presented here, the Ford seems a bit less...stressed, maybe?
It doesn't seem like functionality appears anywhere on the 'list of things" to embody.
Tell you what - take all of them and track them for a season, and see what they look like when they're done.
