I hope they get that technology right this time... if anybody remembers the last time it was tried... it was a disaster. But I think they have the ability to shut off cylinders in newer Cadillacs and high-end Mercedes (S600 V12), so they've probably been improved a bunch.

Not sure if it's a "Rip-off" but there is a strong resemblance. Just this evening I picked up a magazine, saw the RX8 and started reading. I was reading about Chevy's new SS. They look very much alike. I'd love to know which one was conceived first and I'm guessing it's the 8. How far back does the Evolv concept go?

Man that is SO frekin gay of chevy. I guess they are too stupid to come up with something original. If Ford did this, i can understand, 'cause they own 32% stocks in Mazda and they have been getting designs from Mazda for some time. I'm pretty sure Ford wouldn't agree with giving designs to Chevy.
