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

at the time, when we spent the whole evening talking about the Vette, at his brother wedding (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) the engine part of the story was still rumors and not cast in stone.
but the goal was to kill the viper in power, and to kill it in all aspects at any track, for less $.
so the 500+/500+ was a goal... nothing approved at that time... so don't know for sure.
I know for sure he was working on the all aluminum frame... heck I was sure the C6 was coming out with it.
