Thanks Corvette_Nut. Nice that we see the lights “at night.” That remains one honkin’-sized spoiler. How much pool noodle padding is there on it. Might GM have bought some pool noodle, or instead those winter foam pipe wrap insulation tubes with a lengthwise slit in them and use them as the basis for camouflaging a much thinner wing spoiler underneath of them?

Looks like the convertible version again. Also different view of the camo around the side scoop. You can somewhat see a lower intake area in addition to larger one, door wing looks smaller too. It could be just the angle of the photos ... but it looks a bit different ... not that it really matters as the reveal is getting closer.

Am I crazy or do the taillights when lit look a lot or exactly like a C7s? As some has already discussed could this also be another GM trick?

There's still a whole lot more to "dissect" or test before putting a Z06/ZR1/Zora car into the market.

We do not know for sure that the tires would be wider; as one example the 711 HP Ferrari Pista uses the “identical to the C8,” 245F/305R tire as does the Pista’s “lesser” siblings. That’s one of the advantages of the ME configuration. Our C7 Z06’s needed 335R’s for 650 HP. The Pista is just one example of a 600+ exotic ME (with more than a few in the700+ HP club), that use a 245F and a 305R — with one notable exception being the 4,000 lb weight V12 Lambos.Last edited by John; 06-28-2019, 05:28 PM.Z06 coming late this summer: Hypersonic Gray HTC, two tone blue interior, complete high wing/aero package.
