It has been talked about a lot already. It will be a super charged 6.2 liter motor putting out 600+ HP. I have been to the assembly plant where the LS7 motors are assembled and this was discussed quite a bit. Very limited edition. I heard you HAVE to take a driving course before purchasing it. There are already a lot of wrecked LS7 powered Z06s due to ignorance.

Love the hood disguised. Looks like a snake that's swallowed a goat.

I'm sure it will be bad a$$, but way out of my league. For that kind of money I should be able to live in it. Does it come with a microwave and a toilet??

With all due respect, "next Corvette" stories pop up on the average of once a year, every year. I'll wait until I see one on the road.
