The whole concept of sitting on a “waiting list” to buy a car that’s a year away just boggles my mind (deposit or not)…I can’t imagine wanting a car that bad.

The C7 Z06 looks killer and I’ll...

You mean the demographic that makes up 80% of the buyers that can actually “afford” this thing. :cheers:

Plain Gloss Black trim looks good against CFM (like the Z06 CE), however exposed carbon fiber looks terrible against CFM imo (one of the main reasons I didn’t buy...

I’d buy Carbon Flash Metallic again in a heartbeat…but putting it on the C7 so soon would kind of dilute the “uniqueness” of the Centennial Edition IMO.

Here's a pic of the CFZ carbon fiber roof on my C6 Z06…just looks like gloss black paint instead of the exposed carbon fiber weave.

I think the real achievement here by GM is the fact that even "yellow" can't make this car ugly. :D

My guess is the official LT4 HP # will exceed the LS9 (I guess 640)…GM has to get the C6 ZR1 owners to “trade-up”.

Otherwise we’ll have to read over and over how “I’m keepin’ my ZR1 cuz it still...

GM should hire you as their “Optimism Coach”...the entire Vette line-up combined hasn’t seen sales volume like that since 2008 and I don’t see those days returning anytime soon.

Chassis has little to do with it…the GS is about the “look” of the Z06 without paying for the Z06 bits that make it more expensive (i.e. the LT4 etc.). Some won’t pay the premium because they don’t...

IMO, if the new Z only sells 500-1000 units/yr…you can bet there’ll be another lower priced knock-off. :ack:

GM sold too many C6 GS’s to ignore that buyer.

Yeah, I find it hard to believe also…the C6 Z06/Z07 topped out @ $104.5k

My ’12 Z06 was $97k w/o the Z07 package.
