THAT, my friend, is the GM production concept 427 Tigershark. Saw it on that show on Speed channel with that skinny guy with the big mustache. 830 hp with the rev limiter. Custom paint job. Beautiful automobile!

Who wants to place bets that the new C6 will look almost exactly like the original Tiger Shark Concept. Same Carp mouth except wider than the standard C6 and probably with some kind of netting or braces like the Tiger Shark, duck tail spoiler in the back (as seen in spy shots of C6 Z06) just like the Tigershark and an induction hood which is a combination of the Tigershark's hood and the C5-R hood. (spy pics of C6-R) also confirm this. 427 is also rumored in the C6 Z06 too.

Was Dave Hill giving us a preview of things to come in the tiger shark?

I saw the GM Tigershark at the 50th in Nashville. I hope GM keeps that badboy and never decides to destroy it like other concepts they build.
