Disgustingly sexy

Mr.Jay · 01-11-2014, 05:56 PM

Damn maybe when the C10 is out I will pick one of these up

M.I.A · 01-11-2014, 06:44 PM

Well if people buy this up then we could could see a Zl1 or a next gen version.. I like the way the lip extends to the fenders for a wider look

When you finally break down and buy one, can I test drive it?

I'm sad it isn't N/A. Yes, supercharged is better than a turbo, but I still think the Z06 should be naturally aspirated. Leave the crazy power on forced induction to the ZR1.

why wont these bastards make a RHD version!

That's what the stingray is for.

i still can't get over the tail lights. they look cool on the camaro, not with the vette.

Rayme · 01-11-2014, 07:57 PM

First thing that jumps at me is..what a busy design, there's not a square foot except the door panels that isn't busy with a line or vent or something else.

It looks good, but overdone. As for the performance, well it's a corvette, always been fast lol.

Your dad beat you to it! lol

It'll be awhile, though...

n2oinferno · 01-11-2014, 08:58 PM

Yup, I'll own one of these...

...in several years when they cost half of the original price.

Funny I see this thread now. I just got back from the SC Auto Show not too long ago and was lusting after the Stingray they had there.

The stingray is 300lb heavier than the C6 Z06, and 45hp less. I was hoping for a naturally aspirated upgrade from the current model, not a downgrade.

(I think if I ever own a Corvette, it'll probably be a C6 Z06, based on this).

Wait what? The base C7 weighs 160lb more not 300, and the Z06 has 115hp more, not less.

From quick googling (which may be wrong....)

C6 Z06: ~3150lb, 505hp
C7 Stingray: ~3450lb, 460hp

(I'm talking naturally aspirated cars here, not supercharged. I know the new Z06 is faster than the old one, but as it stands right now, the old Z06 is the fastest naturally aspirated corvette)
