The verdict

What's good

  • Tuned LT2 delivers sharper throttle response than the base Grand Sport variant
  • Mid-engine platform provides a balanced driving experience absent in front-engine sports cars
  • Magnetic Ride Control enables both supple GT cruising and track-ready stiffness
  • Exterior differentiation from standard Grand Sport helps resale identity clarity

What's not

  • Low front splitter height makes steep driveway entries a genuine daily concern
  • Cabin is narrow with limited dead-pedal room for tall or broad-shouldered drivers
  • Very limited storage space makes this impractical as a sole daily driver
  • High tire and brake wear costs accumulate quickly with spirited driving use

The engine

LT2 (Small Block)

6.2L Naturally Aspirated V8 (Tuned)

The same naturally aspirated mid-engine Small Block, sharpened in tune for crisper throttle and a more aggressive top end while keeping that instant, lag-free pushrod response.

This is a tuned take on Chevrolet's LT2 — the C8 Corvette's 6.2-liter V8 — itself an evolution of the C7 LT1 and part of GM's decades-deep Small Block bloodline built in Tonawanda, New York.
