"Back when Callaway first introduced the Aerowagon Corvette Stingray Concept earlier this year, some rumors actually suggested that the car was part of an elaborate April Fool’s joke.
But no one’s laughing now, huh?
According to Carbuzz, Callaway is not only serious about building the Aerowagon, but it has actually given the green light for production for the wagon concept of the Corvette Stingray .
The base program comes in at $15,000 — same as the projected pricing of the concept — plus $1,500 to match the hatch equipment’s color to the body. Callaway’s going to give you a treat of a program that includes plenty of carbon-fiber components that Callaway built from scratch using a Resign Transfer Moulding process. That makes the materials ridiculously lightweight, helping the wagonized Corvette Stingray to achieve its performance specs.
Speaking of the power bump, Callaway is also prepared to give the muscle car’s 6.2-liter V-8 engine a noticeable power upgrade that the tuning company is promising will allow the AeroWagon to hit a top speed of more than 200 mph. With that much speed on tap, we’re thinking of an output increase go somewhere around 650 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. This power bump costs an additional $22,995 over the base AeroWagon kit."
What do you folks think of this?
