Can't hurt if they sell. I prefer they bring back one the C2 corvettes.

If GM wants to do a tribute, how about building a 1957 Chevy?

With only 500 being built, the supply will be very tight and demand will likely be quite high, so the few dealers that get one to sell will charge a premium, and they will still be swept up, economy be darned...

Sounds like a good marketing tool to me, celebrating 50 years in LeMans, though I would bet "inferno orange" is a 5-0 magnet of a color...

HA-ha, eat your heart out people, I'm buying all 500 of them, ya that's it - all 500. Then I'm buying Exxon next, oh and ya, Shell too, and, and Saudi Arabia, yea, that's it.
Ok, I lied, I'm not, and - - - they probably are nice cars, but this makes me wonder if General Motors has 'really' "gotten it" with the suppsed restructuring.

Pricing was not disclosed. Of course it wasn't cause GM is gonna make a huge profit on these cars to make up for their shortfalls with other models.

I'm sure the cost will be north of $100k but at that, it will still cost less than an equivalent European road rocket!

Why would they want to make an expensive car in this day and age when everything is tight. No one will be able to afford it unless you're a speculator.
