Looks like we will be getting a few new aircraft, new parachute bags, flight suits, solo flight school missions, but best of all we are also the gorgeous new coquette classic (looks like a C2 corvette stingray). There are also rumored secondary parachutes for a second chance at landing if/when you lose your chute, which may be cool for some of the stunting community. And possibly a Hydra jet as well, but that is pure speculation on my part. www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/52293/the-san-andreas-flight-school-update-coming-tomorrow-augustThe aircraft update coincides with National Aviation Day here in the US, which is appropriate. But to the point, I am absolutely excited for this Coquette. The C2 corvette is my absolute favorite of all classic corvettes and it looks like they have done the car justice in their rendition based on the video. I really hope it is on pace and becomes the best new sports classic. If I have to see everyone driving Z-types or everyone driving these beauties, I will take the Coquettes every day of the week. At the very least I hope it is a close second, and handles well. Who else is excited for this new sports classic? Do you wish it was the C1 or C3 corvette instead (or maybe the C4 though that starts bridging into sports class, not so much sports classic)? Do you think it will have a chance to be on pace of the Z-type? I'd love to hear what you all think NODO! -Sage

Was hoping for C1/Shelby cobra mix. I want the z type out of my garages

Yeah, love the look of the topless. Only cheap bastards will by the hardtop. Personally, the hardtop looks terrible comparatively due to the awkward tilt of the windscreen.
Just checked and the roof at least is pretty much of a Jag E type. No wonder why it looked bad to me. The e-type coupe I thought was always bad looking as opposed to the roadster which is beautiful.

Call me a cheap bastard then, haha, I think I may go with the hardtop. I almost always prefer a hardtop. The topless is very good looking in this case though. I am very torn, because I do think you're right. Something about the Hardtop makes it look less vette like but I can't for the life of me figure out why. In close comparisons, the profile looks almost exactly like a C2 vette. Maybe I'll superimpose a profile image over a C2 vette in PS and post it here.

Update 1.16: The I'm Not A Heist Update
In all seriousness, this is exciting. I'm really hoping the the Coquette is better than the Z-Type so I don't have to spend $950,000 on such an ugly car.

In the second picture you can see the yellow car has skirts and the Black one does not.

An interesting comparison I made in photoshop: Parksguard was right, the angle of the windscreen and hood is slightly off.
