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. http://forums.gminsidenews.com/showpost.ph...391&postcount=1 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 |

QUOTE (94bird @ Oct 23 2004, 05:45 PM) Viper buyers aren't Vette buyers in the Vette's current guise. There's almost no cross over. If the new Vette was to come out with higher HP than the Viper, it's likely the Viper would lose some buyers. I've heard quite a few times the new LS7 will be rated slightly above 500 HP just to surpass the Viper numbers. that's the whole idea behing GM thinking. and we all knoe how GM underrates the #s... plus, more power will be easily attainable. That car is gonna kick some major cars (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif) (Viper + Porsche) it's light, and with the extra power, gonna make a tad harder to drive it well, but on hands of good drivers, it'll be a great toy. The problem becomes with unexperienced drivers with those cars on the road. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |
