Widebody C8 Corvette Rendered by Need For Speed: Heat Artist Looks Amazing

Remember the days when the Need For Speed series relied solely on production cars and prototypes? Well, those times are well behind us, with NFS games being a manifestation of the ever-growing tuner culture nowadays. And, thanks to social media, we can now take the concept one step further, as this C8 Corvette rendering comes to show.
We're looking at a pixel play portraying the mid-engine 'Vette in widebody form, with this having been rendered by Khyzyl Saleem. We're talking about a digital artist who did the virtul tuning on multiple contraptions from NFS: HEAT, the upcoming installment of the franchise (coming November 8) - he does mention that this C8 isn't part of the game, though.

In fact, I've added a NFS: HEAT-bound C7 Corvette widebody done by Khyzyl below, with the artist showcasing the difference between how the car looks in the game and its original appearance in the Keyshot software he used for the work.

Speaking of which, make sure to use the swipe feature for both posts, so you can enjoy the complete eye candy.

Given the fast-forward attitude we use nowadays, one might get caught in the action of such video games (after all, the street racing in NFS requires a player's full attention) and overlook some of the details that define these virtual designs.

However, I'm inviting you to dedicate a bit of time to the modded 2020 Chevrolet Corvette we have here, since this brings a stunning set of mods that seem to fit the factory look, while taking the appearance of the machine far, far away from this.

What about the real world?

Well, as it happens, Khyzyl is also working towards transforming his digital dreams into real designs. For instance, the aficionado's work has taken the shape of the custom E30 BMW you can see in the last Instagram post below. The project was released under the Live To Offend label and I can't wait to see what's next for this bridge between Instagram and your local car show.
