Back in my GM days, I was told that the Vette would never ever never ever have a mid-engine. That it was sacrilegious to even suggest such a blasphemous idea. LOL. Look at GM now. The specs don't look half bad for $60K, but GM still has a long ways to go to even reach the same ballpark that Ford is playing in. Of course one could get about 16 Vette's for every one GT, so it's not really fair to compare the two.
