New ship: Gutamaya Corsair

It truly is an Imperial ship: It only looks good in white. Every other paint job accentuates the awkward curves and angles it has.

Don't you think the currently available white paintjob is a bit too white, though?

In my fleet, cargo ships are always white... mostly because my Cutter is white and I didn't want to spend on a paintjob for it.
My Corsair is going to be a cargo ship (albeit, an armed/armored one) so I wanted the white paint for it but it just looks very... white.
Hopefully, FDev will eventually create "Tactical" paint for the Corsair because the "Tactical Ice" paint usually has various panels colored in black.
 
Medium Trader? T8 im afraid

I've noticed several people saying that the T8 replaces the Python as a medium hauler but I feel like they have very different roles.

The T8 is, basically, a baby T9. It can haul a lot but it struggles to defend itself well.
By contrast, a Python can haul 256t of cargo and cheerfully explode anything, up to and including Anacondas, that tries to take your stuffz.

To me, there's two types of cargo ship; bulk haulers and armed transports.
The T8 and T9 are the bulk haulers. They're what I used to try and make credits from low-risk trading.
The Python, Clipper and Cutter are armed transports. They haul mission/CG cargo but they're also fighty enough to defend themselves and earn bounties too.

The Corsair, to me, is probably closer to being an alternative to the Python than anything else.
 
Heh, something about the all-white Corsair, when the paint varieties were showcased in next to last Frontier Unlocked, somehow gave me the immediate mental image of it giving up a startled yelp, and quickly snatching a towel to cover itself.

...I fear what that may say about me, rather than about the ship... :p
