Your question has been relayed to the appropriate authority.  That person being who he is, he will A) not respond to me, and B) take credit for the idea, if it happens.  That having been stated, he could probably make this happen, if he so chose.

My personal opinion is that Corvette would never allow this to happen.

I've asked the National Corvette Museum if they'll have a Fiero display at the unveiling of the C8, in order to trace GM's evolution of mid-engine design.
...

Yeah. That'll happen. I'm sure of it. :D

Doubt if a Fiero will show up at the unveiling.  After all, it is the Corvette's day.

But maybe someone will someday get the idea of putting a Fiero in a C8 display.

Well, the guy did contact me back.  He didn't seem interested, basically stating that they were unrelated products.

I thought there had only been 1 mid-engine prototype, but I came across this today.  Interesting.  They've been trying since the
60's and still couldn't get it right.

There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Well, I can't wait to test this iteration.
