Default New Corvette

I am posting here because I'm a 928 fan and because many call 928's the German Corvette. I miss my 928 but another one will be in my future. Now the reason for the post is to rave about the new Corvette. I rented one last week on a business trip. I've owned an 81, 86 and 91 decades ago. Always liked them but never went back after my first Porsche. All I can say is WOW. GM really stepped it up. What a crazy good looking and driving machine. I got more looks and thumbs up than any Porsche I've ever owned or even my Ferrari. I'm VERY tempted to get one. I can't even imagine what a Z06 will be like!

And that's what you get for posting a Corvette in the 928 tech forum.

You got Hackered.

It's a Homer Simpson response for my post being moved from the 928 fourm to here. I wanted it in the 928 fourm since it's the only Porsche I like and I have owned four. (Had two 911's too, but I strongly prefer v8 Torque)

C7 might not be with us very long if there's any truth to this story: http://www.autoblog.com/2015/01/08/m...-c8-spy-shots/

Default Mid Engine

That would be cool but can't believe it will ever happen.

the talk is that the MId engined ZR1 will co exist w/ the current C7 Vette.
Todays news of the Ford GT (http://www.autoblog.com/2015/01/12/2...icial/#image-1)
will certainly will give Chevy more desire.
