V12 Caprice
In the late eighties, General Motors was unsure about the future of the full-size B-Body platform. Looking ahead, engineers were exploring ways of increasing not only engine power, but smoothness as well.
The first production drive-by-wire engine management system had debuted in the V12-powered 1988 BMW 750iL. Interested in this new technology, GM sought to purchase a V12 for research. Problem was, BMW would only sell the engine one way, surrounded by the almost $70,000 German flagship sedan. So, GM bought a new 7-Series and took what they needed.
So here is the only V12 Caprice ever built by Chevrolet. Drive-by-wire technology saw production from General Motors in the 1997 Chevrolet Corvette.
