The long-rumored mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette inches closer to reality as a test model was recently spotted on a test drive in Colorado. Speculation kicked into high gear last year when spy shots revealed a camouflaged mid-engine sports car with some distinctly Corvetteish characteristics testing in GM’s neighborhood. Chatter intensified when GM recently announced $290 million in upgrades to the Kentucky plant where the Chevrolet Corvette is built. Frequent sightings of test vehicles over the past year make the rumors of a mid-engine Corvette seem more and more plausible. The Corvette’s 8th generation may include a mid-engine supercar peer as well as a front-engine version more like the current C7 Corvette Stingray. If a mid-engine Corvette is indeed on the way, we will probably see it debut at the Detroit Auto Show next January.
