To me the mid engine design
To me the mid engine design gives up efficiencies in packaging that front engine allows. The front "trunk" to hold luggage, groceries, etc will have to be smaller to incorporate the low hood, cooling, etc. With the change to mid engine, losing space, and likely cost increases, I am not interested in a new Corvette. Having been an avid fan and owner, I think this will be the change that finally kills the car.
