Detroit Auto Show Will NOT Be The Debut Event For The Mid-Engined Corvette

It is the auto industry’s white whale: the elusive, powerful, long-rumored mid-engine Corvette C8. Chevrolet refuses to acknowledge its existence despite numerous sightings at General Motors' Milford Proving Grounds and race tracks like Wisconsin’s Elkhart Lake and Germany’s legendary Nürburgring.

Whale-trackers were sure it would breach the surface at this year’s Detroit auto show where previous Corvettes have debuted.

GM is in the painful process of contraction. As GM tightens its belt, timing is not right for the company to advertise the launch of a 600 H.P. $160,000 low production sports car.

Don't know... but after several years of wait I'm not even interested in the MR Corvette anymore
