Thumbs up Stingray is coming?

Anybody read the new motortrend? As i was casually reading the new issue of Motortrend, i read that the Legendary Stingray vette will be making its debut, in the next year or so. 100+ more HP (blower) than the current z06, and about 200 lbs lighter as well. Something like 28xx lbs or something like that! I smell chevy in true supercar territory!

I doubt it...the current z06 would destroy the shelby in any kind of performance test...

Not sure why they are worried about the new shelby cause the new z06 is a better car....at least in my opinion. The special edition vette is going to be super bad ***, especially that light. Holy crap.

supposidly will cots ~100k...WOW!! but still this thing will be insainly fast. I mean the z06 is darn fast. so now their are making a lighter and even faster car. just crazy.
edit: i was just looking on street fire and supposidly dodge should be releasing the viper 'diamondback' which will put out 650hp!!!! so this may be an answer to this new vette.

I didn't read the article, but chevy must really want to spank ford cause the current z06 is hands down better than the GT500. Time will tell!!!
