Genesis Magma GT concept

Damn this thing looks good. I don't care if it looks like a Grand Theft Auto mashup of a Koenigsegg Jesko and Bugatti Chiron. I like both of those cars and most mortals will never even see one let alone drive or own one, so I'm fine with borrowing heavily from them. It looks a thousand times better than the C8 Corvette does.

It'll be interesting to see if it makes it to production. I'm skeptical it'll make it under 200k, but that's a lot better than 3-5 million.

I could honestly see that being below $200k, at least for a "base" model. I do like the looks of it too.

I like the C8 too honestly. But really only the Z06 and ZR1, not much a fan of the Stingray. Was similar with the C6/C7 too. Grand Sports are the best trim of a Vette I think too (hopefully they make a C8 version), you get the looks of the Z cars, but without the expensive engines etc. And you really don't need 1064hp for the street either :lol:

I wish they'd show the interior. All you can see in the photos is the corner of an off the shelf Recaro racing bucket.

They're saying this is going to be the road going counterpart to their Le Mans Hypercar, the GMR-001. I'd guess it'll start at least at $150k. I'm thinking more Audi R8 than C8 Corvette.

They just released a G90 Hatchback concept too that looks real good. I feel like you're right that they're going after Audi.
