Corvette Blue Devil Spy Photos
With the latest supercar horsepower tango pouring out of Europe, GM can't stand to see the already potent 500hp Corvette Z06 gazed down upon as a second rate supercar. Instead GM is developing an alleged supercharged 600hp Z06 with carbon fiber components dubbed the "Blue Devil" as reported by Autoweek in a recent interview with General Motors vice chairman Bob Lutz. With a curb weight hovering around 2900 lbs. and a price tag starting at $100,000 the European competition should be breaking into a cold sweat as the Blue Devil seen here making laps around Germany's Nurb

If my grandmother had wheels she would be a wagon. Plus $100k for a Chevy? Is "America's Sportscar" trying to keep up with the Europeans? Isn't GM losing money left and right? How about a decent sports sedan with an OHC motor, manual tranny and rear-drive? The C6R dominates sportscar racing here and at LeMans. WTF are they trying to prove?

I guess it is my business sense that is most curious. If this was a tuner like Lingenfelter, I would understand. But for a company that can not get the basics right, why plow funds into this? The C6 is a success, the ZO6 is a real statement, why does GM need to make another one, while their sales are off over 50% this month? MG Rover thought like this. British Leyland thought like this. Where are they today?
If GM build a good looking sports sedan with an OHC motor, rear drive and a manual tranny, I would consider it.
