I mean I would not even consider it with three pedals as dealer markup will be insane but you have to admit that engine is very impressive for a chevy.

It is.

I’m always a Chevy fan. But objectively, this engine fascinates me in a way that the turbo v6 in the Ford GT or Raptor just doesn’t.

This was in my inbox at 7:44 this morning. Deposits will begin November 2 and at MSRP. I was highly interested in a C8 Z06 when the Stingray first launched, totally uninterested now.

Edit: Chevy just sent an email. Live on their website: https://www.chevrolet.com/upcoming-v..._1021_38001010
