Yep, a total production of 25 units more. That will help sales.

Its like the Hellcat...it brings people into the showroom and the end up leaving with just an RT. The key now is how will Chevy advertise and promo the car.

1LE rims are ugly.

2019 or earlier because pre 19 1le rims are some of the nicest wheels I've ever seen..

That is one butt ugly car, and for that money you could get a Z06 and have a real car instead of an aftermarket pile with stickers from a day gone by. The Yenko name is being abused in the name of profit. What a shame.

Well you might have a shot actually seeing a Hellcat if you went to a Dodge dealership. You won't see a Yenko Camaro. Again only 25 being made. So of the few thousand Chevrolet dealers you might have a 1 in a 100 chance to actually go and look at one.

Pretty sure we've already seen the extent of the marketing too.

A press release and brief blog write ups on the Yenko Corvette that SVE also produces is all that car got. I don't expect GM to do much more.

I think GM is just keeping a bit of history alive by enabling the Yenko name be sold through GM dealerships. There aren't any other aftermarket performance shops that get to do that.

I can take a much better looking car and make 1000HP for a lot less money. For the same money, I woukd rather take the 650HP Vette and take the chance on overheating which wont happen for how I use cars like this. Not planing on 10 laps at Road America anytime soon.
Beside who's to say that pile won't overheat when put through the same paces? Have you seen the data on it?

The tires and rims look awful in my opinion. Rather have a 1LE and get my own motor blueprinted by texas speed to make a 1000HP with the new Edelbrock supercharger.

Can you expand on your opinion a little bit? I'm not an expert on this by any means, and I'm a fan of heavy chop so this sounds pretty good to me - I'm just curious if you're hearing something I'm not.
