Default Corvette ZO3 MALLET!!!

http://www.carbodydesign.com/archive...-corvette-z03/

Ugur Sahin Design has partnered with Ohio-based Mallett Cars to launch the Corvette Z03 Concept presented in 2008. The conversion from the Corvette C6 has a price of $69,000 and two optional performance packages are available.
Based on the Corvette C6 rolling chassis, the Corvette Z03 Concept designed by Ugur Sahin (Gorinchem, the Netherlands) will be produced in partnership with Mallett Cars from Berea, Ohio in a limited series of 100 units and will feature carbon fiber bodyworks and custom paint.

Since the first presentation in early 2008 Ugur Sahin and his team have made several exterior design adjustments for optimal engine cooling and improved downforce.

The headlight units have been shaped into a more aggressive, yet distinctive design to fit the shape of the new powerdome hood.

Pricing of the conversion of your Corvette C6 or Z06 into a USD Mallett Z03 is set at $ 69.000 for the full bodywork conversion including reference class paintwork.



Pricing does not include cost of the donor vehicle, which will be supplied by the customer.

The Mallett Z03 will be available with two optional performance packages based on the GM’s LS7 engines, a 700 hp supercharged conversion ( $ 32,700.00 ) and a 999 hp twin turbo conversion ($35,795).

This last package, offered with a full 24,000 miles / two year guaranteed, makes the Mallett Z03 the most powerful Corvette series ever produced, with a 0-60 mph acceleration time under 3 seconds and a top speed of 220 mph.

Looks like a TVR mated with the current Alpha Romeo roadster. I think it's absolutely beautiful. If I had the money "just lying around".... it'd be a fun thing to burn some serious cash on .
