I hope they still offer the manual. It would be a decent selling point, especially when so few makers offer manuals.

The $600 million for the KC Fairfax plant was for a new $450 million paint shop and also new presses. Increased capacity a little but no new lines.

Depending on price (I am only a Firefighter) I'm all over this thing to replace the Camaro in 5-6 years.
It just sounds like what I want. V8, bad ass paddle shifted transmission, mid engine Chevy...

Is it true that they are going to keep building the front engine model for the first few years of the mid engine cycle?
Don't expect any mid engine vette to be anywhere below 100k |

It has hub caps on the front, I've never seen them go that far with camo.....
Ferrari 458 roof line, a bit higher in the tail... there may be a REALLY nice looking car under there!

I hate it as much as the next guy, and I will always love to row my own gears like I do in my 1LE but unfortunately the Manual is on the way out. The new Automatics with paddles are getting too good.

I get it man. I really do. Like I said times are changing.
Unfortunately our options in the next 10-20 years will be very limited.

That's what scares me about a mid engine Vette. the Corvette is a dream car of mine. Owning a brand new Vette is one of my goals in life. a 100K Vette makes that not possible.

I hope GM makes the decision that offers the performance they're looking for, regardless of the transmission.
