If you’re going to host a roadside attraction, you need a star! And that my friends is the C8 Corvette. We don’t know what the reason was (if there ever is one) for this public sideshow but we came across this video this evening showing a 2020 Corvette Stingray doing donuts in the middle of a Philadelphia intersection.

In addition to the Chevrolet Corvette going Mid-Engine in 2020, another sports car with a historic lineage finally made its return to showrooms in the form of the 2020 Toyota Supra. Although facing some criticism as a rebadged BMW Z4, the Supra is still an exciting car and one that does compete with the new Mid-Engine Corvette with winning over the younger demographics in the marketplace. Early demand for the Supra helped to push the MSRP from $49,990 up to the $60,000 mark which is where the C8 Corvette base model begins.

Even before the C8 mid-engine Corvette showed up last July in the flesh we knew this mod was coming. Lamborghini-styled doors, also known as butterfly or scissor doors, would certainly be at home on the first exotic Corvette. And thanks to a shop out in Arizona, we now have some renders and an update as they are creating a kit for the 2020 Corvette.
As a kid, I built countless model cars. I remember starting with the small snap together kits, then moving on to bigger glue-together kits as I got older, and finally on to a 1/12th scale 1967 427/435 Corvette coupe which I still have (somewhere) today. Once completed, I’d display them proudly around my room. Instead of reading material, my bookshelf was loaded with small plastic cars. That glorious smell of glue mixed with Testors spray paint will always make me smile.
