He dident have a name for it but it also mentioned the cobra super snake with 800hp to the crank. I belive it could be a 2010 production withonly 500 production models and mostlikly around 150,000 a pop.
In 2010 alot of new super cars are coming out into the market this is where i do my best studys. Corvette is trying to sell cheaper then all of these supercars coming out but out perform the most of them.

Ok ive did a little more reserch still not much more info on this Corvette.
They will be 500 fully carbon fiber Corvettes made the new body style is most likly the C7 body. The areo dynamics have greatly inproved n these models and you can expect a live rear axle for rally sports.
Mid sized motor means another supercharged motor from GM oviously for the top of the line model.
As my studys confirmed. The Zr1 WAS a test model for this new Corvette. They have been looking for a way to exchange all the fabracation parts for carbon fiber. Which is alot more expencive lighter and stronger then plastic parts. Aparently from my studys they are going to push to compete with the Cobra Super Snake which will be powered by a fully loaded supercharged 5.4L 327CI motor when the new Super Vette motor size and specs are quite un knowen at this time i thing alot of us are going to be attempting to rob banks to get one.
Here are the 2 pics i found of this Monsterous Corvette.

Yea, I have no clue what your talking about when it comes to this car cause it seems complete BS, especially since it looks like something completely ridiculous. What your talking about sounds just like the ZR1! Its carbon fiber, cost 100k, 650hp, will be out in a couple months. I don't think they would make a car, then come out with a new one a year later. Not to mention, your "studys" show that the ZR1 was a test car for this? So there using a production car for "test?"

Dude watch the youtube videos i dont think the fully carbon fiber vettes coming out till 2011 but they hint alot on wanting to build a fully carbon fiber vette.Not to mention its in magazine articals my information for this came from a very realiable source. But i do belive 2010 the C7s will come out but its still to early to tell. Thats why im trying to see if anyone else here has info on this ****.

Dude. Those are clearly photoshopped pics. At BEST, they're complete concepts. The ZR1 was literally JUST released. Why would they change the platform not even a month after releasing a new top-of-the-line car? The stuff you're reading is just complete and total speculation. I saw that yellow photoshopped concept a LONG freakin time ago.

looks like a lambo body with a gt40 scoop in the nose. I definetly think it is gorgeous but way to different for GM to even think of producing at this time, remember people, the general was talking bankruptcy not long ago, then talks of a merger with Chrysler
