<p>If the show Seinfeld were still airing, they&#8217;d probably find a good way to make fun of this Bertone&#8217;s name, &#8216;Mantide&#8217;.  Alas, Seinfeld has run its course, so all we can do is step back and admire this beautiful Italian creation.  Bertone created this carbon fiber supercar using a Corvette ZR1 as a starting point.  As such, performance is stellar (slightly improved from the ZR1, with 0-60 in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 217mph).  The story might end there, except that this isn&#8217;t your typical concept car.  Being based on a production car, this show car can and will be sold once it&#8217;s done making the rounds of the shows, and more importantly, if there&#8217;s sufficient demand, Bertone will produce additional copies.  The price?  Well, if you have to ask&#8230;you can&#8217;t afford it.
