Mid-Engine Corvette Expected to Top $150,000
The more information I gather on that mid-engine Corvette supposedly in the works, the more I think I need to find a few more sources of income.
That or either just accept the fact that the closest I'll probably ever get to that new ZORA is downloading a photo of the car as a screensaver for my computer.

Unfortunately a $150,000 Corvette would still be seen by many as an overpriced Chevrolet. It might be a better fit as a limited production offering slotted at the high end of Cadillac's evolving line. I have no doubt that GM could build an excellent performer at the $150,000 price point or slightly higher given what has been accomplished with the existing C7 and forthcoming Z06 but the business case for it would be a stretch.

Short of a nuclear holocaust is any one under the illusion that the 7th gen Z06 is the end all for corvette?

With over 30 years of FAILED predictions by C & D regarding a mid-engine Vette, why on Earth should (or would) we take THIS time from them as Gospel?

Source was given in the CF article: Source [Motor Authority]
which Car and Driver reports may be launched as early as the 2017 model year and sport a price tag of around $150,000.
