I agree with you to an extent. Personally, I'd prefer to purchase the Z N/A. This gives me the option to go with a turbo setup from the start, vs. having to pay (possibly more) for something I don't initially want. This means I'm paying extra for a supercharger and extra to have it removed just to mod it my way. N/A would have been my preference.

I do agree; its way, way easier to make gobs of power on FI.

This stuff is all intentional. Teaser is probably a better descriptor.

Looks real, however looks cheap. IMO, I would have preferred "twin turbo" instead of supercharged, fwiw.

Looks more like Z56 than Z06.

Probably where it's going.

Similiar spot to where the C7R emblem is probably going....

Here is a shot of the C7R from a member here.

If you want NA just buy a C7 and mod it.

I also said people are going to find things to bitch about once it's released , the formula for tweaking the base vette to the performance vette has always been left to a minimum has worked they aren't going to mess with it.

I was thinking the same...It looks like its angled, not flush with the body or the vents. Oh well. 620 (or 625 I'm hearing) Hp will cure any disappointment in the logo placement...

Looks pretty much spot on to me. Red lines added to illustrate.

That stingray emblem has to go. I've seen it on photos, and in person, and it just doesn't belong there.
