Default Mallett Cars building a new Z03 Corvette

Check this out from my neighbors here in Ohio. I think it looks pretty cool except the redline tires and the older C5 looking wagon wheels. I have known Chuck,Lance and family for years and this is the most wildest thing I have seen them do other than the twin turbo LS7Solstice.

I'm gonna have to swing by the shop and check this thing out. What do you guys think other than the price tag?

That looks pretty cool. The price tag is a bit high but less than a european exotic. If you are looking for something with that look than this is a good alternative.

900 HP is ridiculous, no one can drive that except in a straight line. I was with John Berger at Loudon when he had twin turbos on his 427 C5, and it was like ice racing.
