We’ve been seeing these drive around the radio station (they test key fobs and electronics with our tower). Well now we know a little bit more about it – thanks to a leaked cover from Car & Driver Magazine. Check it out:
Features the new LT5 supercharged engine – 750 hp with 680 lb-ft of torque. Rumored top speed? 210mph. It’s basically a tricked out Z06 from the A-pillar back (wider tires, similar gear ratios). Based on this teaser video from Chevrolet – we’re expecting it to be debuted in Dubai next month. Click here for more photos and details from Corvette Blogger.
and if you’re wondering what it sounds like? Check out this video from the Nuerbergring in August — it shoots flames? Damn.
