Corvette Stingray, 2024
So yesterday I had to take my car to the local General Motors dealership at Castle Hill (Victoria Road) for its 40,000km service, and whilst waiting I wandered into the adjoining GMSV (General Motors Special Vehicles) dealership - and look what I discovered.
It's a silver-grey 3LT GMSV Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. It is, surprisingly, a normally aspirated motor (no turbo) and yet gets to 100km per hour in 2.9 seconds. It has an amazing power-to-weight ratio.
Yet, in saying all that, I think any Tesla electric vehicle will beat it down the street. Hence, I note, the first electric Stingray arrives in 2025.
Here it is. It is called the 'E-ray'. Due soon:

Here's Prince, of-course, with Little Red Corvette:
