Default C7 z06

Has there been any talk of a C7 Z06 in the future?

Its speculated to be called the Z07. There are plenty of spy shots of whats reported to be the soon to be Z.
This will lead you to plenty on it.

So, I suppose that to say we heard it WAS going to have an internal combustion engine would be TOTALLY out of line : If it would be, I will refrain from saying it

You are probably correct but I STILL like looking at it Stingray got some of its stuff from C6R, though, so we MIGHT be looking at a cue here and there with the prototype C7R.

I just hope they lose the spoiler. It looks like something made in a machine shop.

Pretty sure it is specifically set up for road racing and VERY high speed (over 165mph by quite a bit). You think that might have something to do with its stance, rear wings, other aero and ground effects?

Notice how the rear valance is considerably shorter than in the Stingray and then the diffuser is replaced with that lower wing. I wonder if some aspect of that "solution" might find its way to the high performance edition(s) C7. Not that lower wing, but somehow the shorter rear valance.
