Following up on our last story about the Super Chevrolet Corvette, we now have some spy photographs of a pre-production mule caught during early testing. Clearly the biggest difference between the current Z06 and this model is the additional bulge on the hood. That bulge you see is indication that this Corvette doesn’t get its fire from a ‘run of the mill’ 6.2L Z06 motor. In addition to the already superb 500hp 6.2L Z06 motor, GM will add on a supercharger to push overall output up to an estimated 650 grin-inducing horsepower. Planned public introduction of this ultra-performance Corvette is expected in 2008, so get the checkbooks ready. 2008 will be a good year considering the Dodge Challenger, Chevrolet Camaro will also be introduced. So for all of the people who thought the Ford GT would be the ultimate [affordable] Ferrari beater, GM has a real Ace up it’s sleeve and they are getting ready to play it.
