Is This the Sweet Spot? FIRST LOOK at the 2027 Chevy Corvette Grand Sport & Grand Sport X

The Corvette team isn’t slowing down. Just after the insane 1,250-hp ZR1X, Chevy drops TWO more models: the all-new 2027 Corvette Grand Sport and the hybrid Grand Sport X. This marks the return of one of Corvette’s most legendary badges — and the debut of a brand-new performance model. Under the hood? A naturally aspirated 6.7-liter LS6 V8 pushing 535 horsepower, paired with widebody Z06 hardware and serious track-ready upgrades. And if that’s not enough, the Grand Sport X brings AWD hybrid performance with 721 horsepower and supercar-level acceleration. This is one of the most important Corvette launches in years — and it’s just the beginning. Would you take the naturally aspirated Grand Sport or the hybrid Grand Sport X?

What happens when a British engineering firm turns a Porsche 911 Turbo S into a 920-horsepower hypercar? You get the RML GT Hypercar — a million-dollar, carbon-bodied monster inspired by 1990s Le Mans prototypes and engineered to feel like a factory-built Porsche turned all the way up. In this first test, we drive the wild new RML GTH on both road and track to see whether this ultra-exclusive creation delivers more than just outrageous looks. With active aero, a widened chassis, custom suspension, and a twin-turbo flat-six making 920 hp, the GTH promises GT3 RS handling with Turbo S usability.

The 2025 Ford Mustang GTD is stunningly easy to drive fast, a true cheat code for both road and racetrack. At 4,386 pounds, it outweighs the Mustang Dark Horse and Porsche 911 GT3 RS, yet feels planted, stable, and shockingly quick from behind the wheel. With 815 horsepower, 664 lb-ft of torque, custom Michelin Pilot Cup 2 R tires, and Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, the GTD delivers relentless grip, massive stopping power, and confidence through every corner. It matches the GT3 RS on high-speed downforce turns and outperforms it in tight, low-speed corners thanks to its wide tires and advanced rear suspension. On the street, the GTD remains forgiving and composed, with adjustable suspension and active aerodynamics that make it livable. Inside, though, the $325,000 Mustang shows its weak spot — an interior closer to a $40,000 car. Still, Ford has already received far more applications than available build slots for this limited-production machine. Ford calls it “a supercar with the soul of a Mustang,” and the GTD proves it on track and on the road.
