Lutz confirmed at he Chicago Auto show that there will be a higher version then the Z06 and it will be available in Summer of 08 or 09 with minimum of 600hp. Current Z06 will have a big threat from the 2008 600 HP Viper. Less than 3000 will be made the of blue-devil super beast.

SS Prototypes? I can't confirm, but it looks interesting.
Talk amongst yourself.

Seems as if there are going to be as many variants of the Corvette as there are Mustangs.

the more vettes the more chances of someone wrecking one and the possibilites of LSx motors to swap in hehe

Maybe Im just pissed, pissed that my freinds are spineless, What else would you
call abandoment some night, when you're in a fight, and they could make things right?
Spineless. I miss some of my old friends, the ones who you could count on,
bet a huge amount on, the fact that they'd always have your back... Its like a kick in
the sack, just knowing, you've got nothing to fall back on. @!#$ this, Im done.

Ugh, GM is retarded. The SS badge is supposed to be for the high performance machines. I will never own another GM car. Oh woe is the day that they use the SS badge on this vehicle........etc. etc. </sarcsm>

Makes me wonder how legit these photos are. I remember seeing pics of a magazine purposely faking photos.

People who say that about the SS badge don't know much about it. Originally it was an appearance package. (I know you were playingRoNuS20)

Its a mule car, of course its ditry.

It is s/cd did you see the big thing where the intake manifold goes?

It is supposed to weigh even less than the zo6 as well.

where have you been?

it's a superchared LSX (LS9, i believe). it's probably a test vehicle, as they all have seemed to be so far. hence the normal looking and used interior. the hood's probably just chopped together, too. i think it's awesome... but guys, clean up and dress the engine a little. it's a vette, make it look purdy like one

My point was that gm has had many non performance SS. That wasn't a production corvette either btw.

well, yes i did... but it looks nothing like any supercharger ive ever seen, to me it just looks like a cheaply made intake manifold.

the s/c is actually under the intake , similar to the STS-V caddie , what your looking at is pretty much the intake/intercooler

read the update at the bottom


UPDATE: Josh over at The GM Source is reporting that the SShutterbug in question has not been placed under arrest, nor is he in police custody. GM has filed a civil complaint with the Romulus PD, and the matter remains under investigation. Whether or not the individual in question will be charged with a crime depends on the outcome of said investigation.


I doubt he could be put in jail for posting pics of a car if anything a lawsuit

i remember back a while ago reading about the blue devil and porsche and ferrari both had to redesign to keep up with it. GM can surpass the viper no problem. they just need to talk to the right people to find whats working and performing the best. AKA the people who race cars.
