GM unveiled this beast a few days before the 2017 Dubai auto show. The Corvette ZR1 — a life-sized Hot Wheels toy for adults — will hit roads in spring 2018.

The iconic Corvette sports car has been racing across highways since 1953, and although it’s been made badder and faster over the years, the 2019 ZR1 is the most powerful Corvette yet. In fact, it’s now one of the most high-performance factory-produced cars around: It hits speeds of 210 miles per hour thanks to its 755-horsepower engine.  Read more…
