If things evolve the way they did with C7, one will be able to order MSRC without Z51 in 1-2 MYs from now. At intro, it had to be a Z51, but I believe for the 16 MY, you could order a base car with MSRC. That suspension was known as FE2, and FE4 was only on the Z51. FE4 remained as the more performance oriented suspension (stiffer springs and bigger sway bars) on Z51 only. FE3 was Z51 suspension w/o MSRC.

If I'm not mistaken, it's already cancelled. Large group meetings have already been banned in most states, and will be in the rest soon.

There's no reason to think upgrades will be limited only to quality improvements. The C7 price went up a couple of grand from the 2014 intro to 2015, so assuming the price will only go up a couple of hundred is probably wishful thinking.

No one outside GM and a few suppliers (and maybe favored friends of the factory) knows what GM will change for '21. But I'd bet that the rearview mirror / camera will become standard on the 1LT once the price goes above $60K.
i doubt one will see quality improvements, if anything engineering efforts would be directed at taking costs out.
GM has changed their strategy, they would rather delay a launch then have negative feedback by early owners

It’s never advisable to buy a first year model from any car maker.
