Who knows....damn small pic!

He's quoting my post... I dug up those photos to compare :willy::leaving:

The one I've been waiting for. That is a seriously bulged out fender. Can't wait to see what the back end will look like. :thumbs:

Looks like they're going to have all the Z07 bits standard.

Please let it be NA 7.0L and targa.

Left front.

My money is on keeping it a targa and offering it as a vert, but I think you're SOL on the NA 7.0... It's going to be the blown 6.2 LT4 we saw back when Keeks leaked those CAD files.

I could never afford a new Z06 so i'm not worried I went C7 Z51, however, I do hope my big brother f**K's up ever car brand on this green earth, when it comes to the track. GM, show the world who makes the best supercar!

GO GET'M GM!

I believe a Detroit trip is a must for me...

TTRotary 12-04-2013 01:33 PM

BTW, we all clearly heard Mark Reuss state in a video just a few months ago that there had been "no discussion of a Z06". :toetap:

I guess the GM execs do bluff.

BeaZt 12-04-2013 01:33 PM

I'm all in, been waiting..Awesome. Wording in the press release said that the Z06 completes the perfomance vehicle lineup. So does that mean no ZR1? I am so happy they are still calling it a Z06.

BTR_FTW 12-04-2013 01:34 PM

I cant wait for this. I want to see this car straight up slaughter the competition...

that being said, how much HP is the ZR1 going to have? 700+

They're like politicians... He's not going to talk about the hi-po model during the launch of the base model.

Only one hi-po model for now. Z06 with supercharged LT4. Later in life-cyle TT L88 supercar.

I know some want the car to be NA but the idea of a FI Vette that lets you tack on 100 extra horses if you get bored with the 600-ish without having to crack open the engine one bit doesn't hold its own intrigue? How much of that 7.0 desire is just nostalgia?

:iagree:

So glad they retained the iconic Z06 designation and did not call it the "Z07"- that would have been epically stupid. Like changing to the Porsche 912 Turbo.

Also time to eat crow all you "it's a wide body already" and "it won't have flared fenders or wider tires" prognosticators.

No way Chevy would have tried to sell a narrow body base model as a Z06.

Just need to see the rear now! (Fingers crossed):D

Looks like it's got the wide body that so many are clamoring for.
