I think many of the members on here and others in Aus will be hopinh this comes true, BUT...a few years to wait after its release I would be thinking it wont happen, hopefully though I'm proved wrong!

Is it just me or the front looks very 458 Italia?

Still, love it! Now, how to win lotto...

HSV's replacement for after the VF???

quote fro the article:

And as for money? GM hasn’t revealed pricing of the new car, but said it would be in the range of the current Corvette, which retails at $50,000 USD for the base model. Expect to pay at least double that in Australia.

lol wtf.. they're even telling us they are going to rip us off.

[zorro]

Of course, we give them monaro & VE for a song and we pay through the nose in return.... Bit sad when the dollar is so strong and if they are going to right hook them factory and send them here wouldn't cost 50k.

Yes agree our $$ is worth more, they would be importing in bulk first up, it is GM with buying power so transport costs would NOT be the same as one offs etc. our cars sold for less over there than here so return the favor.. if were $60K here would sell like hotcakes..

But it is Australia, everything here the prices are double for no real reason on imports of all kinds.. look at GM spare parts we can import them at 1/2 to 1/3 the cost of Holden prices for the exact same part.

[bozodos]

Wouldn't it be a Holden Corvette over here? hahaha

[empower]

looks like hopes were given for no reason

The second in charge of General Motors, Tim Lee, who is the head of the company’s international operations, hit out at reports of a right-hand-drive Corvette for Australia, exclusively revealed by News Limited yesterday.

He told reporters at the Detroit motor show overnight: “I have no idea what [General Motors CEO Dan Akerson] said but we have no plan to put a right-hand-drive under that bonnet. The Corvette is a Chevrolet, it’s not a Holden, it never will be, next question.”

im sorry.... but

its a nice looking car but looks like its a miss match of all sorts of things.

I mean wheres the iconic round tailights. Looks more like a Camaro rear end.
