- Imagine a roaring, mid-engine Corvette fueled by not one, but four rotar engines, its sleek lines inspired by a Mako Shark. This wasn't science fiction; it was the 1970s 4-rotor Corvette prototype. This experimental beast boasted incredible power and nimble handling, promising to rewrite the sports car rulebook. Yet, concerns about the rotar engine's reliability and emissions kept it from crossing the finish line. Today, it remains a tantalizing glimpse into what could have been, a forgotten chapter in Corvette's adventurous spirit.
Before the iconic Stingray graced the road, there was the 1965 Mako Shark II concept car. Inspired by the sleek, powerful predator, its design was pure automotive poetry. From its pointed nose and sculpted fenders to its boattail rear, the Mako Shark II oozed futuristic elegance. While it never saw production, its influence on the later Corvette Stingray is undeniable. It was a rolling sculpture, a testament to daring design and a reminder that sometimes, the most captivating journeys never reach the final destination. Its spirit, however, lives on in every curve of the iconic Stingray, a testament to the power of a dream car that dared to push boundaries.
