If this is the base model, I cannot imagine what the horsepower and performance figure of the ZO6/ZR1 will be like.:thumbsup:

Wait is this the first mid engine vette?

Am I the only one that want to replace the vette badge with a Ferrari one just to see how many ppl I fool?

ae101 07-19-2019 07:23 AM

The American Ferrari for sure

Tom Peters has a very distinct design language

He also created the Aztek, and if you look at the two you do see some shared lines.

Looks great! Any word if they will have an edition with a proper trans?

Can’t wait for the first twin turbo 1500hp mid engine corvette!

Edit: I think The bisforbuild guy is already doing it in the lambo. Close enough.

Should I trade in a Cayman GTS for one? I might wait for Z06 version.

I'm impressed that they finally made a Corvette that actually looks good. The interior looks well trimmed as well. The tablet thing looks just as hideous as it does in every new car but what can you do.

Supposedly a DOHC engine is in the works for Chevy. I'm hoping it's similar or identical to the engines Cadillac have been piloting. The blackwing would be a great base engine in the future.

That looks so much better than the red one.

the taillights and retro interior is pretty typical GM stuff (seems cheap and tacky)

the front LED DRL also looks backyard job

everything else seems good though...i don't think i care about the 3rd pedal for a 500hp exotic especially if the computer can do sub-3s

i hope they make a fixed roof while staying naturally-aspirated

in case anyone missed the power hardtop with cowls

The z06/zr1 is supposed to get a tt dohc v8 based on the Cadillac engine. Apparently cooling is an issue though because there's a rear trunk for the targa top.

The starting MSRP is $69,998 in Canada for this beautiful car.

Well done Chevy! :thumbsup:

I've come to the conclusion that literally everyone is rich except me. Even if you made 100k salary which is pretty decent, 70k is not even take home for the year.

That's a full year working, not spending a dime of bills etc and still not having enough. Damn, I suck.
