More information on the Blue Devil
It appears the car made the cut. I do not understand how this car can be driven on the street. Hopefully it will be equipped with all the electronic safety devices available. Lutz seems to hint that.

The current Z06 is already tempting enough. With this new "animal" out on the streets, I might seriously have to expand my garage !

You owe it to yourself to test drive a Z06.
I did it about a month ago and it seriously change my point of view about the Corvette.
I don't know about the SS/Blue Devil but the base Z06 to me is an unbelievable performer.

They also have a new automatic transmission coming. Its not a PDK or DSG. It is a new 7spd that uses British(!)patented technology for less power loss and quicker/smoother shifts.

Ridiculous move made by a desperate near bankrupt car manufacturer. Not a car for street driving unless dumb down by permanent electronic aids.

It will be a blast for sure. But do you really want that kind of car on the road?
Seriously, who is going to buy it?
I wish it was people who could drive it, but I am afraid it will be geared toward younger crazy drivers. Prove me wrong for our safety though.

Enzo and such type of buyers don't go as crazy with the cars. They should be more responsible on the roads.

This is stupid. Why wouldn't they "go crazy"? I think all you are doing is stereotyping, and you've done a poor job at covering it up. Those who can afford a $100k+ car in my opinion are not much different than someone who can afford a $300k.
