Check it out at these other forums. Can't link the pics, some copyright crap, and I don't want to take credit for it. Look at how wide the freaking back wheel is. Also, not the huge arches and all the covered ducts under that bra. Oh man, nice wheels too! Can't wait to see it in January!!!

It looks like the normal C6 with crappy development wheels, RJ.
RJ 21
HAHAHA, no. That thing is widebody, lights are different, there is noticable bulge, scoops, and ducts clark. Don't be an idiot. Look clsoely and quit being a Vette denier. This thing is going to kill the Viper.

jesus christ, the second I say something less than glowing about the corvette I'm jumped on RJ! Get a fucking clue: I LIKE THE C6 A HELL OF A LOT. I can count all the american cars I REALLY like on ten fingers and the C6 is one of them. Please get your head out of your ass before you infer I'm some random hater.
RJ 21
Well, quit acting like you don't like it. Be proud of it. Wear it on a damn shirt clark! Do it! laugh.gif Nah, I know. It just seems that nobody on this baord lieks the vette because it is the American Icon. Yea, I went there...

Nope. This is the latest one. The first ones were about as small as a damn avatar. mad.gif

must be thinking of different pictures, i saw this one in autoweek, white corvette, well disguised, before the C6 debuted, and it was a decent size/quality pic

Seen it now, can't see too much detail, but it looks slightly better than the C6 with the wider arches.

Wow those rear wheels are huge. Oh well its still a vette. Viper > vette always and forever. Even if its numbers end up being better than the viper ill still prefer the viper. The viper will always be a step above the vette because it is at a higher price. This allows it to be more rarer. Hell the vette is accessible to almost everyone so there are tons more on the road. Also almost all viper owners mod their cars where as vette owners dont.

but its just my opinion that the viper is better.

the reason people hate the vette isn't because its the "american icon" (which could be argued) its because there are definite flaws in the car that are always overlooked by fanboys like yourself.

i dont have a problem with the vette, i just like a lot of other cars a lot more

^Very true 5Liter

Anyway, The Corvette By far is the only thing Chevy is doing right these days, and even then, they can't get it completely right. The point is that for it to be an (relatively) Cheap ultra-competitive car in the market, of course they will have to comprimise many features, and I recognize all of them, and still I love it....

If youv'e seen the pictures- I don't understand, how they say that just seeing a 7.0 Block in the CTS-V race car proves that it will be ion the Z06. Maybe the Chevy Race team just wanted to try the C5-R block for a while... (as much as I would love to see the 7.0 in the Z06)

The Viper GTS hasn't been made yet. We'll talk when it's done and Dodge reenters the FIA championship they've wiped up so bad for almost the past decade.

thats how i feel about the cars i love

some people love the vette, some hate it. Both sides have valid reasons, but it just comes down to personal preference.

7.0 litre!!! Wow. The rear windshield part looks just like the C5 ZO6.

They couldn't have driven this. IT's the Z06 which hasn't even debuted in car shows. Will debute in Jan.

Well, rumor has it that there will be two different versions. IDK, whatmight happen with prices, but rgiht now the Z06 "base" is rumored to start at around $60K

A small little bump but what does a racing motor have to do with a "high performance" corvette motor?

That's what I was trying to ask, that supposedly, because the 7.0 was photographed inside a CTSV Race Car, that proves It will be in the next Z06.
I don't see the connection either....
Boxster17
Can't tell much with all that crap on it, but it looks like it'll be better than the C6. Oh, and I wanted to add that the lights aren't any different RJ, it's just the cover...it wouldn't make sense to change them... tongue_orig.gif And the only difference from this picture is pretty much that the rear got a bit wider...
RJ 21
Well, the inside fo the lights are black now, so there is a difference, albeit a small one. tongue_orig.gif

Here's a nice side profile shot:

RJ 21
Yea, some of the newer pics also show twins!! There's two of them... A 2,900 lb. car with 500 HP... I expect:

0-60: 3.4-3.6 seconds
1/4 Mile: 11.3-11.8 seconds
Top Speed: At least 205 MPH. (Corvette executive said the base C6 could do 190 with front taped and mirrors folded in. The Z06 will top that easily [Almost 100 more hp!])
