No ZR1 or Z06 for the C7.
According to this link, 4th page:

I guess the equivalent packages will be named something else?

No, it says "marks the end of the following models for some time". Maybe a couple years? Doesn't say gone forever...

"for some time" most likely means a period of time after the introduction of the C7. Remember that the Z06 didn't arrive until the second model year of the C6, and the ZR1 didn't arrive until a full four years in.

Senior Badass!
I will wait. They will make one a year or two down the road. Like everyone mentioned above... they are not going to announce the release date of a higher model or it will drive down the sales of the introduction model.
Still... I will wait and see what they do with the Z06 or ZR1. Im perfectly content with the Z06 I own after seeing the new C7.

This forum is flooded with fear based posting right now. I didn't think there were any more fear topics to discuss but I was wrong. Some people read way too much into things.
"Marks the end of the following models for some time" meaning until the C7 Z06 and C7 ZR1 come out.

I love how people read quickly through stuff like this and jump to conclusions based off a general comment . I'm pretty sure we won't see 3 more versions like a GS , ZO6 and ZR1 this time around , but you can bet money there will be some high end top dog C7 we just may not see it for couple years

They need a high-end, high performance C7.
And I believe there will be one.
