We are not sure is this the surprise they were thinking of, but it surely is interesting as they have released first images and details of the GranTurismo MC Corse Concept.
GranTurismo MC Corse Concept is based on the 430 hp GranTurismo S. The engine has been upgraded with a new air intake system, competition-spec catalytic converters, revised airflow and a center-exit exhaust. Power increase compared to the GranTurismo S is 20 hp, boosting the total output to 450 hp.

Jetstream SC250 is a lightweight, mid-engined, rear wheel drive road-legal two seater sports car that is powered by the same 2.0 liter Ecotec Turbo Twin-Cam 16-valve powerplant and smooth six-speed transmission that appears in the Vauxhall Astra VXR, producing 250bhp as standard.
The engine can be run on either unleaded or bio-ethanol – the latter fuel increasing performance by around 10%. With the SC250 weighing in at a mere 700kg (1,550lb), an astonishing power-to-weight ratio of 357bhp-per-tonne (2.8kg/bhp) is achieved.
