beats me.

wow, awesome car and good article, can't wait to see one in person

Holy cow. A sub-4 second 0-60 run, for about $70,000? I'm gonna rob a bank.

*drools*

7.0 Liters, That engine Is HUGE! Great Car, I wish I had the money.

sweet
but if I got any corvette it would be a stingray

that thread is becoming another Ford GT vs C6 Z06 crapfest.... amazing

whao, what an engine, a pushrod v8 that revs to 7k rpms... that engine must be pretty small too, should weigh less than the 4.3 and 4.5L V8s from toyota and nissan. I dont think the up coming nsx or skyline gt-r or lexus lfa has any chance at topping this monster in terms of acceleration.

awwww I love that Vette!

The braking sucks though.

Looks good but it's still a Chevy. I won't be buying from them again.

If you read the article you will see that it is really just forced to wear that badge. This is unlike any other chevy ever made. Just take the chevy and GM badges off and it is what everyone calls it: a corvette....no one says chevy. ;)

p.s. How long do you guys think it will take for people to be able to actually get them for 65k? Do you think the dealer mark-up will last long?

The braking sucks though.

Who leaves anything stock these days though? :D

You could always outfit it with the carbon fiber ones they use when they race it. They're good up to 900*F and will stop on a dime. Plus, you get the cool glowing brake effect at night when they heat up! I'm sure the ricers will be all over that one, putting neon in their wheel wells to make it look like their civic has $10,000 brakes.
