[DeTomaso] NPC - Mid-engine C8 Vette to be a Holden?

Sat Aug 5 00:32:34 EDT 2017

I think so many of us who became Pantera owners only did so when we realized 
GM was never going to come through for us. At Least that's what I've heard 
several Pantera lovers express. I still doubt we'll ever see one which is 
too bad. I think GM would support their vehicle far better than Ford ever 
did. Just my opinion.

I hope we see a $125K Corvette that might drive Ford to make their GT more 
affordable to the masses. One we could buy and drive and not just have to 
watch Jay Leno enjoy.

Wishful thinking

Mike,

Google is your friend.

http://www.caranddriver.com/news/2019-chevrolet-corvette-mid-engine-c8-spy-photos-news

There are a million other links showing the same photos.

I don't want one. But it will be interesting to see if they actually make 
it?
