Still not exciting. We're talking about the hope of 400 horsepower from a trim that hasn't even been confirmed yet, which would certainly be a big big upcharge from the base car if it even comes into existence and Toyota USA decides to sell it to us. And how much lighter could the Supra even...
I wonder.
If it arrives with a more or less standard Corvette engine, can't see it being that much more expensive than something like a grand sport vette.
Surely though the ZR1 caliber car will be well over 100k.
In typical corvette fashion, the dealer markup will exist for about...
I think people were becoming resigned to the fact that this was going to be a sub-400 horsepower car. So the only hope was that it was going to be a lightweight car as had been rumored for a very long time.
Now it's pretty much confirmed we're not only getting an underpowered car, but a fat...
If this garbage hits for $60k, zero chance it sells, 100% chance they will trash any plans for any meaningful refresh, let alone a more expensive hi-po version. That Sti BRZ everyone knew was coming never arrived, and that platform actually moved a decent amount of cars.
Even at a lower price...

Just a few years ago this thing used to be the butt of automotive april fools jokes... :D
Short answer: no.
Longer answer: yes, if you really need to provide cooling to the trunk, or maybe those headlights and turn signals throw off a lot of heat.
1) Brake cooling ducts are going to be a lot lower, usually along the side skirts in the rear or right above the splitter in the front...
The last-gen Viper was a big sales flop. They had to idle the factory for months at a time because demand was so low in the first years of production. The early cars sat in showrooms with big markups for many months, but once the launch haze faded, Chrysler quickly had to discount and actually...
+1 on the premise of this thread being too vague to tell us anything at all.
I would absolutely love for this car to be some sort of a Corvette priced, Corvette performer. It's a great performance value proposition. Really I'd love to buy a Corvette that's made by someone other than GM and...
Late to this thread, but honestly, DCT-only would be best case news for me. :bow: Not only is that what I wanted from the start, but it would also mean I won't get a big upcharge for ticking that option like BMW/Porsche like to do to their customers.
Also would be far easier to find the car...
