Always like the simple look of the white Z06x, what happended to this car?

I understand it was a concept built by GM and never saw actual production

fwiw, pretty sure that's Spring Mountain in NV, but not sure if this was just a 'visit' for the X car

I think they took the GMPP cars there after SEMA last year.

I want the wing. It sits low to the car and looks really nice IMHO. But it was a "one-off" built by Pratt Miller and never meant for high volume production. Oh well....

Our local Lamb Chevrolet was able to get this car shown at our local Prescott AZ Corvette Show last September (256 Vettes in the show). I think it was right around the time of the SEMA show. It was in their service area for a couple of days before the show and then down on the Courthouse Square all day that Saturday.

Last it was seen to my knowledge was the Woodward Dream Cruise here in Detroit this August. I got some sweet pictures of it then. Doesn't look like they ever intended to make it. Just a proof of concept.

Default Road America

I saw it last year also at R/A. It was a vehicle that needed a slow walk-around..and more than once. The setting was perfect for "the one they should have built". I believe that there would have been many takers and as well recieved as the Mustang "Laguna..".
Too bad.
