Re: mid engine Vette, again
All of the usual auto journalists, in their never-ending quest to sell magazines and/or their web sites, have yet again cranked up the age-old "IS THIS THE NEXT CORVETTE?" furor. They are all over the place on what the fuzzy photos of the featured car represents, but it may cost anything from 70K to 400K (yikes!), may or not feature a hybrid powertrain, and in fact may or may not even be a Corvette (Some claim it will be a Cadillac).
Time will tell, of course. Yes, there are apparently running prototypes of a rear-mid-engine car. It is real - or eventually will be. I have said all along that I would believe it when I see it . . . OK, I've seen it (well, sort of). It does exist.
I just don't know exactly what it is I've seen yet - and neither do the rest of us. And you know what? Neither do all those auto journalists. In spite of all their hype, they are as clueless as we are. But, they have product to sell. All will be revealed in the fullness of time. Personally, I'm in no hurry. Sounds like I won't be the target market for this new car, whatever it turns out to be. Glad I kept the C6 convertible instead of trading it, and even gladder I have the 1962.
Stay tuned. We'll all find out together. And yeah, the taillights suck.
