German tuner teases Chevrolet Corvette C7 Shooting Brake

German tuning workshop Bitter Automotive has announced a rather ambitious project involving converting 20 Chevrolet Corvette С7 sports cars to Shooting Brake body type. The team has promised to showcase a finished car at the Geneva International Motor Show in 2020. According to a representative of the company, it has already received a few advance orders.

This actually isn’t the first time someone tries to build a Corvette with an estate/wagon/Shooting Brake body type. For example, a custom build called the Callaway Corvette AeroWagen saw the daylight in 2017.

Those with good memory will also remember the 1954 Corvette Nomad, an estate car based on the first-generation Corvette and packing a 3.8L engine with 150 hp (112 kW).  Regrettably, the vehicle never made it into mass production.

Bitter Automotive didn’t say just how much a Chevrolet Corvette C7 Shooting Brake would cost its buyer, but given the price of the regular C7, we’d assume a six-digit sum in USD.
