It's allready been 100% confirmed that it's going to be front-mid and rwd just like it is now. No mid-engine... they did consider it though.

If the C7 is just a revamped C6, then I will just keep and mod what I've got... The C8 twin turbo V6 kinda perks my ears, though. I was thinking about starting a project this winter and putting a single turbo 6 into a C3...

I have the a 2009 Atomic orange z06 but its completely stock. What did the LG longtube headers and exhaust bring the horsepower up to?
