Default 4door Vette?

When are they gonna offer a back seat version? 4doors even. Kind of an extended cab Vette. That way I can cruz with my buds!

You laugh, but it could look great, and open up the market to the practical.
Is GM is terrified of the Germans?
They shouldnt be. :leaving:

No offense, but that's a horrible idea.

It's called the Cadillac CTS-V.

Do you like ANY of the current Cadillacs? No way, really?
Yeah man, I'm gonna run out and trade in my S4 for one of them.
Not!

Now that RX8 is closer to bliss.
But if it just had 4 REAL doors, we wouldn't have to line up like penguins to get in & out of it.
Surprising to me that they didn't force a 3-door version onto their followers for a few years. Like GM did with pickups. They went straight to half suicide doors, I'm sure because everyone loves them?

How bout a 3 seater with the driver in the middle a la McLaren F1? :rofl:
They could also do one of those 3 person bench seats a la Lincoln Towncar. Then they could mount one of those cool shifters on the steering column.
:rofl:

Dear Mr. Painfully Obvious Troll:

Sorry you don't like the CTS-Vs. Be sure to avert your eyes as they pass you.

The RX8 doesn't have four real doors because it tries to look like a coupe. It's the whole point of the car. I suppose next you'll be lamenting that nobody builds a two-door limousine.

Enjoy your time here, which if you keep posting flame-bait will no doubt be brief.

I understand what you mean, that's what I thought was great about the last gen. camaro's. The Camaro SS was perfect, it had lots of power, great styling, and it seated more than two. However, the vette is what it is because it's a two-door roadster. So if you want a ponycar, which by the sounds of it you do, check out the 03'-04' SVT Cobra or if you like the german thing, the M3.

It's coming, but not real soon. It will be cheaper than the C6. It will not have a phoney Porsche 911 "back seat". It will be called the Camaro.

Why only 2 doors? Uhh...It's a CORVETTE.

If you want to cruise with your buds GM has a fine selection of vehicles. Virtually everyone of them will seat more than 2 people. :yesnod:
