60th Anniversary Edition, convertible AND SC 427
Chevrolet has stepped up to the plate by producing the 427-powered Corvette 60th Anniversary Edition. Callaway Cars has continued their legacy to make that plate more powerful. Starting with a solid platform in the 60th Anniversary Corvette convertible, containing a mix of Z06 and ZR1 DNA, the engineers at Callaway Cars has introduced this stout performer with even more performance through their SC652 package. This makes for the first 2013 Corvette to exit the Callaway facilities and considering that it's an Anniversary Edition, a convertible AND the first time that Chevrolet has offered the LS7 in a drop-top, all these items come together to make this an excellent offering to begin the production year for Callaway Cars. http://www.amosauto.com/Articles/Cor...ercharged-60th

Re: 60th Anniversary Edition, convertible AND SC 427
Yer talkin ZR1 $$$ for the Not a Dodge anymore!
Base price for this hopefully not too civilized Viper jumps up about eight grand over 2010’s levels, just past $100,000. The Viper GTS starts slightly above $120,000. But it’s no longer called a Dodge; now it’s just the SRT Viper. http://www.caranddriver.com/news/201...-and-info-news I wish I could fit in a Viper so as to test drive one but at 6'4" I can't even fit into the passenger side for a ride without my knees crammed into the glove box. I don't fit into C5 and C6 hard tops well either I suppose that is why the 427 Vert looked interesting. Esp. with the SC model from Cal. Maybe someday a used one of those at a good price might be an idea. For the $ the ZR-1 is still the best deal and I do fit into them just barely.
