The only problem is, after growing up in Chapel Hill and being a Carolina fan all my life, I can't possibly drive around in anything code-named "Blue Devil"! :twisted:

Oh heck. Only 625hp. Why wait for the C6 when you can upgrade
your C5 to something really brutal today...

I can confirm off hand that the C6 in some form will have carbon body panels. GM approached crawford composites about making a limited run of carbon hoods and fenders for the new vette. Crawford couldn't meet thier cost estimate however.

IE bodies for the "supervette". I'd guess surely by marketing it will happen to blow the doors off the Ford GT. Especially if they are approaching firms about getting the advanced bodywork.
