Now before everyone gets their panties in a wad I'm just curious as to why they do this, I'm not trying to make this a Z51 vs non thread.

The base car is fast enough with the 8spd auto, off the line, that the z06's extra power wont come into play ,in any meaningful way until past 60 mph....

True enough but if it's merely an option package why differentiate it from all others, they don't do that with other options? To purposely go out of their way to make them separate tells me they are not considered the same. IMO the Stingray with the Z51 package is no more the same to it's non Z51 brother as the Z06 with the Z07 package is to a Z without the Z07 package.

My assumption would be that 2015 will be way into the 40k mark. 2014 got off to a very slow start until they got the process down. Making less than 100 a day for several months. Will they shatter a record in 2015? It will be hard to top the mid 80's

Yes, but they also built 2014s longer than usual. The model year switchover is usually at the beginning of July, not mid August. So expect 2015 to be about the same.

At the bottom it says plant build capacity is 38,000 cars/yr with their single shift and some overtime.

Getting above 40k cars would likely really challenge plant capacity. GM apparently has no intention of adding a second assembly shift.

Surprized to see Silver down so low! It's the best color left of that line-up! Red black Silver CGM Keep the rest! White or yellow or that blue not for me! GM needs to look at the whole
color line-up!
