It is my understanding the ACR will be released in 2014. Let's hope the GM engineers working on the new vette will take a few notes on this one.

Good looking on paper and the Internet, much better in person...

My gut tells me an ACR in two years.

A track buddy attended a private showing for viper owners late last year. The execs told him 2014 on the ACR.
