I agree with purple but the Acura NSX is a Honda not a Nissan. :crazy:

They said the V12 uses "new" displacement-on-demand technology. Guess they didn't do their research.

GM will upgrade the Corvette to a V12 when buyers make it clear that they are willing to put their money where their mouth is.

What will you pay for a V12 C6 with upwards of 445hp/445lb-ft. of torque?

I work at the Chrysler Tech Center and they have tv's all over the place that shows what they call DCtv news. They had a story on this new engine and the new Corvette.. They said that HP would be 700 and TQ 750.. With a price tag of around 100k. :crazy:

I think I'd be insulted if a V12 only put out 445/445.

A mid-engined V12. A CAD rendering. More faux buzz.
The only thing C6 might have in common with this car is the CAD system on which it was rendered. :-)

If the C6 had that engine it would cost over 100k, that's not gonna happen
