As early as the late 1990's, San Francisco based coach-builder SV Motor Company envisioned a car that took the raw performance of a Corvette and refined it with a touch of Italian flair.  Their vision was to infuse many of the design elements found in the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione (from which the SV 9 clearly drew its inspiration, as well as its name) with a 2009 Chevy Corvette.
With its provocative looks and precise performance, the 2018 Corvette commands attention.  Whether on the racetrack, at a carshow, or on the open road, there are few automobiles that have as distinct a presence as the Chevy Corvette - and no Corvette is as awe-inspiring as the all-new C7 Corvette...

You can find a newer, low-mileage, Corvette at a price point that is reasonable when looking at a C7 vs the competition. You'll pay more than you would for a Mustang, Challenger or Camaro, but you'll get a lot more car for the money too. 
Always on the hunt for greater speed and greater thrills, Delmo decided to replace the '61 he had been racing with a brand-new 1962 Chevy Corvette. Owing to his demonstrated skill behind the wheel and prior successes with Corvettes, Delmo had a close relationship with legendary chief engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov and enlisted his assistance with the new car. "It was easy," Delmo recalls. "I called Zora and said, 'Build me a race car.' The only other thing I said was to make it white."
On February 3, 2020, Chevrolet officially began production of the mid-engine Corvette in Bowling Green.  Chevrolet marked the occasion via the use of social media and literally "tweeted" the announcement from the plant. The new mid-engined Corvette was a revolution for fans and an absolutely amazing machine. Long live the future.
