purchase the Concept that debuted?
does anyone know if you will be able to purchase THE concept they used in the gmtv.com debut? i wont be able to beat the wallets of the guys who can afford it, but its just a 400hp vette motor for now..but to own that concept as is..would just be amazing...what do they do with the concepts? does GM keep them or ever release them?

Almost surely, no.
When was the last time you heard of GM or any other manufacturer selling a concept? The only one I can recall is one that popped up at Barret-Jackson this year. It was a Pontiac from the early 60's.

Don't believe everything you hear or read......now......please......someone post on NastyZ28 that this is not true........and IF it were one of my people at the show, I'll take immediate steps to set them straight.

) won't live in the Corvette Museum in B.G. Could end up at GM's Heritage Center though.Not picking on you personally about the word "probably" but I see it butchered in so many posts that I'm afraid people think "prolly" is a word. For the record, it's spelled and pronounced "PROBABLY". "Prolly" just makes a person sound stupid, like when people want to "axe" (ask) a "pacific" (specific) question.
Ok, now that that's off my mind and the lesson is over, we can go back to our regulary scheduled post.
