New Corvette, mkay?

I wonder how one of these would be a for a DD? 450/450 makes it more powerful than my car, most likely with a fatter powerband, and at a lower weight.

And get better MPG to boot :)

I wonder what the numbers to the wheels will be once we start seeing dynos...

Haha those pics of the C5Z in snow were funny.
54k is a price jump, the C6 base 1LT was 46k or something. I think my 3LT had a 53k sticker price. Maybe they are including more standard features on the base model.

True on both counts; what really matters is what it'll put to the wheels.

I'd have to imagine anywhere from 380 to a hair over 400whp. Depending on what day of the week the car was made.

2013 C6 base price is $49k. More standard performance features on the base model now, CF roof and hood, aluminum frame, etc. An extra 20 hp too.

Ah yea I was thinking of the early LS2 models, I think they were a bit cheaper. I wonder if they will offer a clear roof option again.

3 options for the roof, painted CF, bare CF or clear.

Thats about what the 430hp LS3 C6s made to the tires stock.

I dig it. Finally a stingray that does not make me puke. IMO if they would have gone with a diff rear end design it would be that much better.
