The Streak Continues: C8 Corvette Remains Undefeated, Named to Car and Driver's 10Best Again!

For the fifth time in its five-year production run, the Eighth-Generation Corvette has been named one of the 10Best Cars on sale by Car and Driver. This is the automotive equivalent of making the All-NBA first team; it’s a big deal, and we certainly hope that the Corvette team has some performance incentives baked into their contract for times like these! C&D’s calls 10Best their “ultimate comparison test.” To make it happen, they wrangle every new or significantly updated car on the market under their $110,000 price cap. Unlike the similar test that their California-based competitor runs, Car and Driver also allows the winners from the previous year to tag along and try to defend their respective titles against even fresher metal.

Enjoy this while it lasts, folks! Z06 vs. Huracán has become such a common matchup that it’s easy to take it for granted like many did during all of those years of enjoying Manning v. Brady in NFL Prime Time. Just like those legendary quarterback duels or the even more distant Bird and Magic matchups, battles between naturally aspirated midengined supercars from America and Italy will soon be a thing of the past. The Raging Bull’s all-time best-selling sports/supercar will end production in 2024, and every example to come has already been spoken for, so this budding rivalry of purist driving cars is already on borrowed time.
