Corvette Based Endora SC-1 Supercar

Endora-SC-1-Red-Front

The Chevrolet Corvette is one of the most popular American sports cars in the world; it’s affordable, comes with lots of power, and is a pretty sleek looking car.  Because of these attributes, there have been various supercars that use the Corvette’s chassis for inspiration, the Bertone Mantide and Anteros coupe and convertible are examples of such cars.  Now it’s the German’s turn to build a supercar around the Corvette’s chassis.

A company called Endora is building a Corvette based supercar called the SC-1.  The SC-1’s design keeps the lines of the C6 Corvette but puts a new front face and rear end on the car.  From the rendered images provided, the front of the car looks a bit cartoonish and reminds me of the late model NSX.  The rear fascia has a more retro look to it and would feel right at home on American muscle cars; the rear quarter panel and wheel well have a drag car look to it with really wide looking tires.

In base form, the Endora SC-1 will be powered by the Corvette’s 6.2 liter LS3 V8 engine which produces 430 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque.  The SC-1 also comes with optional 7.0 liter LZ7 V8 engine from the Z06 which produces 505 HP and 470 lb-ft of torque or a supercharged 6.2 liter V8 engine from the ZR1 that produces 638 HP and 604 lb-ft of torque.  All engines are mounted to 6-speed manual transmissions but the base model can be equipped with an automatic transmission at the owner’s request.

No word yet on the prices for the Endora SC-1 supercars or when they will be delivered, the company is currently taking orders.
