But when the sheet inevitably did come off, it was impossible to hide the mid-engine car’s proportions, especially next to a front-engine Corvette. Seeing the mid-engine Corvette and the ZR1 side by side, we can more clearly see the differences between them. The mid-engine Corvette’s hood is much shorter than the C7’s, and the whole car looks like it’s been stretched from the B-pillar back. The hood line is also lower on the mid-engine Corvette, another clue that there’s no engine up there.

"As we’ve previously reported, GM’s mid-engine supercar is expected to join the Corvette lineup alongside the existing front-engine offerings. The ZR1 would be the highest-performance iteration for the front-engine Corvette range, while the mid-engine car, rumored to be named Corvette Zora, would be positioned as a true supercar-fighter designed to take on the best from Ferrari and Porsche — not to mention its cross-town rival the Ford GT. The mid-engine Corvette could receive a new DOHC 6.2-liter direct-injected LT5 V-8 that was leaked in an internal GM document. The ZR1, on the other hand, may get an evolution of the Z06’s 650-hp supercharged LT4 V-8."

>mid engine proportions
Or it's just a hardtop convertible based on the corvette platform.

But surely they're never made one of those before

>>16586858
they better fix the back end top and bottom of back need to be rounded off and the front could use some too

>>16586840
Why is a mid engined Corvette needed? Isn't the FR Corvette already enough?

>>SPY SHOTS
I really hate this spy shot clickbait bullshit. This is clearly just a get hyped photoshoot. I mean, its not really a spy shot if you are STANDING IN THE FUCKING ROAD as the car drives by 4 feet away.

>>16587078
GM usual pissing match and infighting

they have been trying to make MR since the 60's all which flopped

>Why is a mid engined Corvette needed?
GT class racing. The car can not compete with the 488, Ford GT, and 911 rsr. I think GM got really used to racking up GT class wins.. and now they can't.

I imagine this will be purely for homologating. For it to be a sales success.. it will need to offer hypercar performance. It will need to perform at Ferrari The Ferrari for a 488 price.

judging from depth of field and image quality these were done from very far away with something like a 500mm or 600mm lens

even the ones that appear to be 4 feet away are pretty heavily cropped

>>16586844
Anon, look very hard at this pic. If you look very closely you can see the driver of the pickup is looking right at the photographer. Its not a photo taken from 500ft away m8.
