The Ford GT killer?

Be curious if the first model has much over 500 hp...  in corvette fashion like most manufactures I would say prolly not as they will just be releasing base models for the first year or 2....  it was like 2 or 3 years before we saw c7 Z06’s and a couple years after that for ZR1’s.

I’m guessing around 500 hp for the base model and a 7-8 speed DCT

So far I think we do know the base motor is pretty much the same 6.2 in the C7’s.

the next fastest one is a 5.5ish liter non pushrod flat plane crank with turbos.  

The fastest will be 5.5ish flat plane crank non pushrod turbos with some batteries and electric

5.5 is always a bad rumour.  The 5.5 has always existed as it’s the maximum allowable NA engine for GTLM but it’s never been in a production vette

It’s not the same 5.5....  it’s a new engine modeled after the ford gt350 engine going into top level vettes

I think they just ruined the corvette appearance like they did with their pickup designs.  Pretty bad.  It looked better in camouflage.

You’re retarded
