They certainly didn't hide the larger wheel well fenders.

Just a real quick overview with me posting these pictures. If you look at the 2nd picture you can see the stock exhaust, and it looks like on this white c6 the exhaust outlets look much bigger. Also I think on the 2nd picture of hte close up of the front wheel there are Red Calipers? Anybody else notice this?

Cool pics!

Also the Mule's tail light lenses appear to have some type of white lower halves which are different than the "afterburner" style lenses- Euro spec??

They are red. The tail lights are different also. Look half red, half white. Maybe moved the back-up lights?

Look at the B-pilar and rear glass, looks like the same lines as the targa-coupe.

I still think they're going to make it a targa and that they're just lying to us so we won't all wait for 2006 Z06s.

The Z06 is targa style but with a fixed roof.

What do you suppose is being covered ahead of the rear wheel well?

It could be the rear brake ducts.

Remember awhile back, there was talk of a quick refreashing after the release of the C6. Maybe this is what we're looking at.

The dragon is on hwy 129 near Knoxville (closer to Maryville) TN. Here is one link http://www.dealsgap.com/index2.php

We often organize drives of this road in the southeast section of upcoming events / Forums of this web site.

I still think they're going to make it a targa and that they're just lying to us so we won't all wait for 2006 Z06s.
And some people thought the anniversary edition would have more HP too. Sorry, it ain't gonna happen. I think Dave Hill got asked that so many times, you could tell he was tired of answering. I'm not saying I agree w/ them, but just like C5, there will not be a targa or vert Z06. It will have the lines of the coupe, but the roof will not be removable.

I know it's just a mule, and lots of changes will be implemented before release. BUT, Dave Hill did say that the Z06 appearance will be significantly different than the coupe. I don't see that much difference, yet. The larger wheel opening and fender bulge are minor items imo. We'll see.

So far I've gathered from this forum many aspects that were supposed to be on the '06 Z06. These included extremely wide wheels and extended quarters/fenders to meet the need, larger brakes with (likely) red calipers, a larger front side cove opening, a rear brake duct opening near the door handle (somewhat like a 911 Turbo), much larger exhaust and different wheels, and the fixed roof with coupe hatch style...it seems that almost every one of these is all but confirmed here. Also I've read of a Ferarri 575 Maranello scoop in the very front of the hood with a larger hood bulge, a larger front opening (perhaps with a mesh grille) and an otherwise revised front fascia. I have not read much of the rear...I hope at least an emblem will be under one of the tail lights this time! The excitement is building for me
