Even chicks know Corvettes are for senior citizens.
Are we talking a base C6, C6Z06, or a ZR-1? Be a little more specific Greg. A base C6 sure, but I really don't see a GTR dropping the panties anymore than a Z06 or ZR1 will.

If they used a V10 you could probably expect dimensions more similar to the Dodge Viper in the front end. Especially when trying to get most of such a large motor situated behind the front axle line. Not to mention the added mass from a turbo system on a V motor tends to be fairly low, providing a more optimal center of gravity. Of course this is more speculative, but that would be the biggest strengths that I'd consider.

Most women don't know the difference between models of Corvettes.
