Nice to see, but I've already spoken my piece about the need for more accessible (i.e., cheaper) performance...What i wouldn't give to have that drivetrain and style in a cheaper, lighter, de-contented Chevrolet or Pontiac...that would be the ONLY car I'd need

 

Ahhhhhhhhhh, did anyone else see that in the article they said that the STSv may have as much as 700 hp from the 6.0! I doubt it, but that would be insane.

 

uhm, shouldn't they fix the wheel-hop problem first, BEFORE they add even more power?

 

Maybe they have fixed wheep hop for the CTS plus?

700 HP STS gets to 60 in over 5 seconds?! That car must weigh about three tons with that number...

 

I guess Cadillac will now become the new performance division.

 

What kind of gas mileage does a 700hp STS get?

You know, here are again with a hp race taking off right at the same time gas prices are going through the roof. I hope it doesn't turn out like it did the last time.

 

On a side note, from this post ( Possible XLR-V testing? ) and the pictures we see here with the middle hood bulges, it looks like Caddy is going to supercharge every vehical it has in order to make it a V-series. Does that mean the corvette is to be blown soon?

 

i think the vette will stay NA...tradition and all that...

For more power, I'd think they will just add cubic inches, like the Viper

 

I need to make a million dollars, fast.

 

"Reports suggest the STS-V Plus could develop as much as 700bhp from its tuned version of the Corvette's 6.0-litre V8. 0-60mph shouldn't take much longer than five seconds, for either car."

700hp out of a corvette 6.0liter... even if it was blown thats 300 more than the ls2 makes in normal form. If that even holds truth that possibly they built a 700hp one... maybe just to see if its reliable.. i think 575hp for a z06 with 427ci's would be easy to accomplish. Assuming that 700hp is true. But if they have a cts that gets 500hp.. that seems to lead me to believe the z06 will have to have more
