Casper Posted August 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Did you read the article? If you're referring to the Fisker part, that was added. It wasn't there when I read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 the engineer i talked to said a mid engine vette was in the works. he also said there is talk of mid engine with a smaller engine but also cutting the weight down alot. he said they have performance numbers to meet (i.e 1/4 mile, lateral g, top speed ect.)

Somebody's lying. Cuz GM recently was very adamant that no such thing was in the works. Maybe, something is in the works but not going to be a corvette? How bout the Corvair? (Yes, technically it was rear engined. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 the guy who has seen it or the company that said no more z/28? lol Good point. However, (I forgot to post this when I posted above) this is believed to be a camouflaged Fisker. Update: The manufacturer plates match Fisker, thus making it a Fisker (likely a Fisker Karma) prototype. Clever bodywork. Also, calling it the "Karvette" is a good sign.

AWW$HEEET Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 since when have manufacturers told the truth about anything? its been happening since the 60s when they intentionally underrated their engines from the factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will add they are notorious about new products more so than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
