Despite its shortcomings, the 2012 Corvette was capable of producing the same performance numbers as any of its European counterparts – including FerrariPorsche and BMW – for a fraction of the cost.  This realization – along with the Corvette’s compelling performance in both the American Le Mans series as well as on the international racing stage – had elevated the Corvette from a well-intentioned American sports car to a status -both in the United States as well as around the world – of a true supercar.  Even with this recognition, General Motors was only a year away from unveiling an entirely new Corvette that would revolutionize the platform beyond any Corvette that had come before it.
