Awesome car!! 0-60 in 3.9 seconds, 1/4 mile in 12.2 seconds at 117 MPH, 0.99 g lateral exceleration, 3324 curb weight and 335/30/19 rear meats. Also, the manual trans cars get a hand-built LS3 with a dry sump.
MT suggests that the LS3 is making more than the claimed 436 horsepower.... they were able to best the times achieved when launch control was used. Either way, Corvette has upped the ante again with their "base" model!
I love the looks of the Grand Sport and the performance speaks for itself.

The C6 line up is bar the best generation of Vette in terms of having some thing for every one. Even the base model puts past king of the hill Vettes to shame. GM is getting the Corvette right. One of the dealers on CF has a new GS 1LT for 50, thats pretty good.
