Is the Manta Ray the Corvette We've Been Waiting For?

Is this the ultimate C8 Vette ruse or the low down that we can all take to the bank?

It could be nonsense.... OR.... it could be true. All we know is, there is some evidence to back it up, and it sounds legitimate enough to get the attention of The Drive, GM Authority, and Motor1 to cover it.

Is the LT1 the same thing as a 350 cubic inch Chevy V-8?

If you don't want to click on the slideshow, you don't have to. Just saying. That being said, thanks for chiming in.

They are not calling the new ME Vette' the "Manta Ray". It's a slow moving, harmless docile animal that would be the poorest possible representation for the most badass Corvette ever made. It's just such a crock of **** and the fact that it was reposted by (what I thought were) some legitimate news sites is pitiful. The poster made a random, anonymous post-- I mean, to give that any real "credit" is insane. The only way I could see Manta Ray fitting in the Vette would be a widebody kit or something like that for the Stingray. Maybe that's why it was trademarked a while back? Company's trademark things that don't come to fruition this happens frequently.
