Wallace said GM is considering requiring that Blue Devil—and even Z06—buyers attend a driver school as part of the price of admission.

A car with that kind of power is well quite possibly too fast for any average driver out there. Especially for road use.

That's that certain car I couldn't tell you about. All I can say is 2900 lbs, 650 hp and 575 ft lbs at least lol. And it should be around or just over 100 grand. Silly, taint it?
