The Chevrolet Corvette, an automotive legend, has always been synonymous with American performance, boasting a distinctive front-engine, rear-wheel-drive configuration. However, since the inception of the Corvette, there has been a persistent dream among engineers and designers at GM-to create a mid-engine variant capable of rivaling the best European supercars. The Corvette CERV III, unveiled in 1990, stood as the culmination of decades of experimentation with mid-engine layouts, pushing the boundaries of technology and performance. But to trully see how serious GM was with there dreams of experimenting we have to start at the beginning
So join me as we explore...

I'm 60, and a Vette fan. Why Have I never heard of this. It's gorgeous.

[@Alchemy2.0]

This could have been a game changer

The speedometer going to 220 mph, not bad. Looks way better than any Corvette ever. The mid engine in the last Corvette surely is the best one they sold imho. The C6 Z06 is my second favorite one. 👍💪✌

I've been in that old school vet! 😍😎

I always thought the C6 was the prettiest model of Corvette. I had no idea they took the mid-engine concept as far as this prototype you present here. I am not a fan of the super pointy angular styling of the current gen cars. I have always liked the gen of the C6 and McLaren F1 with smoother lines.

I was a big fan of the Corvette Indy and CERV III. They should have been produced.

[@sheephearder8643]

This is not the first mid-engine corvette concept.

[@Andoniscars]

best vette? probably. also the indy. at least in design. by far.

[@voornaam3191]

And why the hell does such a great idea never hit the road again?! Car brands are just like persons, many are crazy but they hide that.

[@coronalight77]

Uhh do you even know anything about cars?

[@jaypioh]

@@coronalight77 do you?

[@warshrike666]

So you do not know about the C8? Or do you not call that a mid engine because its 60-40 and not 50-50 like the old one? Which is why a mechanic in the U.S. dropped a C8 off a hoist after he took the front wheels off.

THE SECOND, mid-engine Corvette, Bubba! Try on the Wankel Vette. Then, GET an EDUCATED Editor!!
