The engine won’t be the only defining change, that we can be sure of. Rumors suggest that Chevrolet will finally be bumping up the quality of the materials used in the sports car – ending what seems to be generations of poor quality complaints – and will be putting in higher end seats similar to buckets seats. If they expect to keep up with the times, then we would suggest putting in a few technological advances. If the Ford Focus can get all teched out, then the Corvette should be able to dazzle us with something.

New details on the next generation Chevrolet Corvette suggest that the car will adopt a European-style, small-block, turbocharged V8 engine. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, the new engine will only be slightly larger than 3 liters in displacement and will be of an overhead-cam, rather than traditional overhead-valve design, using a dry sump oil system that’s particularly well-suited to high-performance road courses rather than straight-line acceleration. Expect to see an output of about 400 HP, or about 125 HP per liter, making it a strong competitor for models like the Porsche 911 and the Lamborghini Gallardo.

2012 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti

The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti is a grand tourer produced by Ferrari between 2004 and 2012. Ferrari, S.p.A is no ordinary automobile manufacturer. No product of Maranello is an ordinary automobile. So it makes perfect sense for Ferrari to introduce the 2012 Scaglietti on one of the biggest stages in the automotive world – the International Geneva Auto Show in Geneva, Switzerland.

The 2011 edition is scheduled for Thursday, March 3 through Sunday the 13th. It will be the 81st in the distinguished history of the event, which began way back in 1905. Until the shroud is lifted literally and/or figuratively in the convention center that will host the show – the Geneva Palexpo, the true identity of the 2012 Scaglietti remains a mystery. However, the sum of the spy information – photographs, copy and video – provides more than an inkling that Ferrari has given its flagship grand tourer a major overhaul. The consensus of spy sources is that test-mule versions of the 2012 Scaglietti are larger than the current production model. Thus, the question is what enhancements will Ferarri house in the longer wheelbase.
