2. It will come with twin turbochargers, producing some 650 hp. False: it will use a single blower.
3. Only 3000 of these vehicles will be produced. True.
4. It will cost $100,000. True: The price might even climb to $125,000.
5. Chevy will drop the current high performer, the Z06, from its lineup. Who knows?
