http://www.corvetteconti.com/welcome...=103&Itemid=47 (inclucdes one of my "spy-shots" somewhat recognized by the vette community) nobody knows what the future super-vette will look like... but with some luck, JW may be the first to see it ;) |
Well sadly the real is probably that the engine will be small displacement, forced induction - heavier and more complex and less effective overall.
GM can just about stay in business selling shitty cheap cars - they have no busiiness trying to make $100,000+ cars that will slow and heavy like Lamborghinis... If people wanted a ferrari or Porsch or Lamborghini, that's what they would buy - variety is the spice of life. |
Ahh, here comes the quick and dirty way of HP gain again.........there's so much more one can do to that LS7 engine for more HP, but noo, they want to use a supercharger. :|
|
i also read 2800lb :twisted: and 600hp are goooood IMO

My guess is that the project will either get scrapped or delayed heavily due to the current financial issues of GM. There's not much market for a $100,000+ Chevy. If they do make it, I'd guess that of course there would be those who would buy it, but it would be the same people that bought the Ford GT.
Much easier to buy a regular Z06 and make some mods to get the same performance for way less price. |

i haven't heard anything new on this subject in a about 3 months now.... but they were originally gunning for #1 @NS. the development time on the engine alone seems to warrent it will be used for something. |

one thing all info sources have come up with, is that will use CF in various body parts. |

I'd hardly call a Murcielago "slow" when it's faster than a Z06, unless that's a "slow" car too..... |
CTS Super V?
