Specter Werkes C6 Corvette GTR







Following up on the teaser images Specter Werkes released earlier this year, the Federales (formerly the Policía Federal de Caminos) over at Jalopnik.com were present at the official unveiling last week in Cauley Ferrari in West Bloomfield, MI.

As the top-of-the-range tuning kit, the Specter Werkes C6 Corvette GTR is powered by Specter's emissions-legal Matrix II engine package for the LS3 engine. It is basically a "stroker" engine package that increases displacement from 376 cubic inches (6.2L) to 416 cubic inches (6.8L). Combined with stainless steel headers and a low-restriction air intake, the engine is rated at 535 horsepower and 530 lb-ft of torque.

The GTR's widened bodywork includes front fascia, carbon fiber splitter, extractor hood, front fenders, doors, rocker panels, rear fenders, rear fascia and carbon fiber rear diffuser. Other body components include carbon fiber mirror caps, carbon fiber headlamp bezels, unique tail lamps and center high-mounted stop lamp.

The Corvette GTR package carries a base price of $34,995. Each vehicle is hand-built, numbered and fully documented for the customer.

That car was at the Corvettes of the Rockies this week. It was slick looking in person.

I really love their pieces for the CTS-V, but this is pretty bad...it's just WAY too overdone.

Caravaggio does a much much better job of touching up a Corvette's appearance.

It looks like something a video game renders so that it doesn't need to pay GM for the Corvette rights.
