Tadge Juechter on the new Z06...

[Hulkamaniac]

Motortrend Magazine, June 2014, Tadge Juechter acknowleges that not everybody will embrace the bigger Z06 tent/family, "Some hardcore owners liked the idea it was a track-specific, only manual transmission, and you had to be pretty macho to step up and buy one. It created a little bit of an exclusive club. BUT we are in the business of selling cars to people who love cars, not creating clubs to exclude people."

God bless Tadge Juechter for seeing the light!


They just can't afford to market these cars to guys my age(mid 40's) and older anymore.

Corvettes are a lot like boy bands, if your fans/buyers are only in one age group, you're doomed to fail, especially in the tight economy.

Adapt or die. Plain and simple.
