And yet still we think that GM would completely abandon the mass market vette. Here are sales from the last few years.

2017, at 25,000 units averaging (guessing) $65,000 ea is a crap ton of money. $1.63B to be exact. There is absolutely no way that GM is going to let this money run. In my mind, there will absolutely have to be a vette that slots into this market. I don’t see a place where a mid engine GM car can retail less than $125k, I also don’t see a world where 25000 people/yr can shell out $100k+ for their mid life crisis.

The only other thing would be to break Corvette off as a brand, a la Ram.
