ha, I was reading Road&track (or Car&Driver) and one of the comments by the author was "Someone will cram a V8 in it."

Corvette is a far superior car, unless they reworked everything else on that Solstice. It was bound to happen though, cool car.

I wonder what that does for the weight distrobution.

Regardless, it's going to be disgustingly fast.

I'm sure there will be some hobbyist out will stuff a V-8 crate engine from GM into a Solstice.

Probably not that bad, the LS2 is surprisingly light.

That and the fact that the engine is placed pretty well behind the front wheels so it wouldn't disturb the weight distro that much
