I like the black roof, black lights, and the fat back tires.

The thread below goes on and on. If the 500 hp rumor is true then I expect the car will have a 7.0l. 427ci*405hp/346ci=499hp

Certainly GM can get to 500 hp with a 6.4l if they wanted to try that hard. There is a guy on ls1tech that is firm about the new z06 being a 6.4l as he is involved in some part of the production process.

Note the other z06 off to the right edge of the image in the first post in the above thread.

In person the c6 looks more compact. I like the one I saw better than the photographs of them. So I am more excited about the c6 z06 than in previous days.

Enjoy

So many rumors, we will see once it comes out. One thing is for sure, it will be above my price range. I think will wait a bit longer this time. My 01 z06 stickered for 49,500. Add tax and you have a hefty sum. I bought it from a guy with 500 miles on it, still even had the plastic on the floorboards. I paid 42500 in early sept 01. Since then used car prices are in the shitter. Even though I thought I made out getting a new car at a big discount, I have lost at least 12k since then. I enjoyed the car so I guess it was worth it, but I guess if I ever own another z06 I will wait.

I don't know how they will make another one too much better than this one, since properly driven it will take just about anything out there on a road course. If they make significant improvements, it will be better than some serious race cars. It is already almost as fast as the world challenge touring car leaders at road atlanta stock with some kumho victoracers.
