Long before the C8 Corvette, GM made another mid engine sports car.

GM botched the first car (budget & political constraints -it couldn't be faster than the Corvette), but it can be saved with a modern engine upgrade and then easily troll its peers.

I've got an LZ9 that would be fun for a Fiero GT conversion.

The Vette has gotten better but it probably would have happened at a faster rate if they had to keep up with a faster Fiero, or more GM grand national projects...
