Corvette C7

I've heard debate that it was going to be mid-engine. I doubt that now.

This was something I pulled off the internet.

That looks sweet, the Vette is already the best sports car for the dollar, they make it look like that and I will rejoice.

Looks like a corvette/lambo hybrid. Still looks like it could be mid engine to me. Are those cooling vents for the engine behind the side windows? A mid engine vette would be so sick.

I think they were thinking about scrapping the mid-engine idea right before they went belly up. I would love to a mid engine personally. Some die hard corvette people feel that it's too "European."

I can't imagine it happening now though

Not the cooling vents for the brakes on the quarters, the one's on the A-pillars. Or is it an optical illusion and nothing is sticking out?

Could it also mean they want to go AWD as well? That would throw it off for me.

The engine code is LSA, in the Zr1 and CTS-V.

The vette will not go mid engine.

Negatory good buddy. The Zr1 runs a 7:26 on the ring, and costs 110k. The GT-R runs a 7:26 and cost 25k less.

The Z06 and GT-R sold for the same, but the Z06 tracks on average 3 seconds slower.

No AWD.
