Default 2008 "Corvette SS"

Pictures, and some information came from this site.

LS7 (?)
650bhp
Projected to be available in the beginning of 2008 as a 2009 model.
Price: Roughly $100,000






I see credibility is going to be an issue already. lol
Here ya go: Btw they all have roughly the same info, give or take.
AutoWeek
Even SEMA....yes SEMA has it on their site.
Last one: Car and Driver

Disclaimer: Who knows if it's real or not, i just saw it in my most recent issue of Road & Track, so i figured i'd toss it out there.


*waits for Unit to chime in*

The pictures are fake. Nineball made a thread of the article where Winding Road revealed how they fooled everyone with only $400 in supplies.

If they make it I think they should call it Corvette Stingray, too many Chevys are getting SS badges these days. Corvette SS just sounds kind of funny to me.

I just found the pictures of the fakes, and they are two different cars. After that hoax I pretty much took anything from them with a grain of salt. My mistake.
