I cant remember where i read or heard this but this i what i think GM should do. The next gen corvette platform will probably be a bit smaller. So take that platform and put a four cylinder with some cheaper body styling and call it a sky and solstice. Then have higher performance suspension, brakes...etc in the Corvette with the same platform just with corvette styling. And ofcourse a massive V8. Maybe even a twin turbo V6.
When it all comes down to it, the solstice and sky will be more practicle because it will be slightly larger but with all the same fun of the current ones. And they can be sold cheaper because it is sharing a platform with the Corvette. And at the same time the Corvette will be slightly smaller which makes it better for power to weight ratios and for better handling.
