Default C7 Rumors

Talked to a friend of mine at work today who personally knows someone wayyyyyy up in GM ranks and said that the C7 Corvette (2018 possibly??) would be a mid engine car, Wouldn't this be the 1st time in Corvette history this has been done? Gonna be interesting to see if its true, considering a LS motor will have to be designed/ redesigned for it.

A mid engined GM car was spotted and it has a silhouette similar to that of the old V10 Lambo

Not sure when it will be available but the LT2 will be the C7 motor. 490hp. Cam, intake, and exhaust changes will account for the higher hp.
