Callaway Cars Wants To Turn Your C7 Into a 200+ MPH Shooting Brake

Yep, you read that right. The famous tuner has released renderings of the company’s design study for a C7 Corvette-based shooting brake concept.

Callaway plans to manufacture the body package providing an openable hatch that would result in a unique style and increased interior space, positioning the Corvette in the elite class of two door shooting brakes.

Callaway’s AeroWagon body will be manufactured in their proprietary RTM process for structural carbon parts. The KRTM (Krämer Resin Transfer Molding) process produces load carrying carbon parts in one swift molding step.

Fitted to the Callaway version of the C7 Corvette, the Callaway AeroWagon is projected to be a 200+ mph automobile while still returning the highest mileage rating in the supercar segment.

Based on market reaction, Callaway plans to produce the conversions coincident with the release of production C7 Corvettes this Fall. The AeroWagon option is projected to be under $15,000 and available through Callaway Dealers nationwide.

as usual, the bang for the buck cannot be beat. I think it looks good.

Wow, a vette wagon. Never thought I would like it, but I do. I imagine it needs new 1/4s, rear fascia and hatch. 15k seems inexpensive for the amount of work it looks like it needs.

Honestly think it looks silly

This isn't a ff or an rs6 or an e63 or an m5 wagon

Callaway should stick to engines, they did a bad ass job on the c6s
